Well done BarnetDad and others. We also got NLCS and a nice scholarship to boot (as well as at least one more scholarship offer elsewhere), but there's a very small residual feeling of disappointment that DD2 didn't get into St Paul's, where her sister goes. It's hard to call NLCS second best and there are good reasons for DD2 to go to a different school, and yet....

Well done svg123 and hightime. Hope you will be all celebrating tonight.

MarkThyme, I am sure dd2 will thrive at NLCS and perhaps become best buddies with Barnetdad dd2! Is she a netball player? The first game of the season at DAO has been NLCS for the past two years. So we will shee her there if she is. There will be different strengths at NCLS and she will get to be her own person rather than sister of dd1. How does she feel about it? There are many girls today who will be wishing that they had that NLCS letter thudding through their letterbox. DG

Very glad to see some forum girls get places at NLCS. I had the happiest time there :) Well done!

Dao, you're absolutely right. She's got three scholarships from three different schools including a very generous one from NLCS. We are very proud of her and know how lucky we are having bright kids. I also know that SPGS wouldn't suit her and that she's better off going to school where her big sister isn't (they get on but the older one has a rather..ummm...overpowering personality, whereas DD2 is quieter and more considered). NLCS is a terrific school. But it would have been nicer to turn SPGS down than the other way round.

By the way, she likes netball but isn't very good at it. Maybe she'll give lacrosse a go.
