Thats fantastic Cayra, Im sure she will enjoy it. Whether the name of the course is 'out there' or not, meanings nothing. The fact that she is doing a music theatre course is. After her first year she can reapply to WAAPA and and/or other courses she feels she would like better if it doesnt work out.

I agree with you, the system isnt fair - I cannot get any youth allowance for my daughter either. Its ok for Centrelink to say we earn too much money but when you look at all the additionals your child needs - weekly accommodation, bond, etc. $150 - $200 (maybe more) it is alot of money out of your wage. This is not something we would generally fork out if they were living at home.

I suppose they look at it as a luxury. We dont have to send them there but we as parents want to give our kids the best opportunities, therefore we pay for it!!
