Has anyone heard from STAHS regarding interview dates?

Nothing yet, but St Albans boys just came out and I am expecting St Albans girls tomorrow morning. DG

just got interview email! very pleased!!

Me too.

Any tips about the interview.
What kind of activities will it be.

DD1 did the group interview 5 years ago. It was a half day affair including lunch.. for the actual assessment they did a science experiment in small groups and a teacher went round to ask them each a few questions about what they were doing. DD1 loved it.
DD2 is having the individual interview however. It is just 15 minutes... very short in my opinion! It must surely be difficult to make a decision in that kind of time frame.
Has anyone done one of these?

The individual interviews are offered to those who are under consideration for a scholarship award.

So congratulations to you and to your DD. She must in the top tier.

All the best for the interview...
