  1. The Salvation Army shop in Nunhead take D of E volunteers as do some other charity shops. The Friends of Nunhead Cemetery take volunteers for their workdays (first Sunday of the month from 10-4) if your child likes physical outdoor work.
  2. Nunhead Cemetery 4pm Camberwell Old and New 5pm please leave on time so that you don't get locked in!
  3. There is a Malaysian pop-up, Janda Diner at the Man of Kent in Nunhead. Their stay has been extended for another month and then they are moving to a more permanent home in Peckham. https://southwarknews.co.uk/area/peckham/malaysian-pop-up-diner-finds-success-at-a-nunhead-pub/
  4. For those of you who don't know who Terry Hall was, he was the lead singer of the Specials and Fun Boy Three. They had iconic tracks including "Too Much Too Young" and "Ghost Town"
  5. The Bloomfield Centre does assessments. http://bloomfieldlearningcentre.org.uk/ Your son's school should be doing an initial assessment and referring him on. Have you tried contacting the school's SEN department?
  6. Also the Salvation Army in Nunhead run a food bank. They are open on Wednesday to Saturday and are based on Nunhead Green, a few doors down from the Nuns Head. There is also a charity shop and great cafe there
  7. Cleaner, Greener, Safer and Devolved Highways project applications are being accepted now until 2nd October via the Southwark Website. https://www.southwark.gov.uk/engagemen.../grants-and-funding
  8. Yes they do, also Harris Westminster. I do think most local sixth formers do stay with one of the relatively local options. It's worth looking at St Thomas the Apostle and Harris ED both which have a mixed 6th form. Haberdashers also take in a large number of external students at sixth form level and Christ the King 6th form college in Brockley is another local option.
  9. The Council wouldn't do this without first writing to you asking you to do it and telling you that if you don't cut it back by a certain date, they will do it and charge it to you. The waste also would be removed. The fact it was done on a Saturday, with no letter and the waste left points to a neighbour! Renata
  10. I also thought this was a new bakery! I would suggest changing the title to eg "mouldy bread dumped in Peckham Rye Park. Hopefully the parks staff have removed this by now Renata
  11. Most secondary school after school clubs are free. The things you may need to pay for are outside the activities run by teachers eg Lambda drama course if external teachers are used or Duke of Edinburgh for camping trips etc. Renata
  12. Hi Bodsier, I am a Southwark Councillor! I represent Peckham Rye Ward, this encompasses South Nunhead, a bit of East Dulwich and a bit of Honor Oak, south of Peckham Rye Park and east of Forest Hill Rd. No Southwark secondary schools are under LA control, They are all academies/free or faith schools. Most children who have the most common SENs ie ADHD/dyslexia/dyspraxia don't have a statement of SEN and therefore the schools don't get additional funding to support them. What I have reported her is purely the feedback I have had from parents with children with SEN who have attended and had good experience of support for their child in local schools, in some cases they have picked those schools due to how children with SEN are supported at those schools from what they have heard from other parents. I know parents with children at Charter ED but have not had any feedback about their SEN support.
  13. Hi staniulyte your child will automatically be placed on the waiting list for the ?6 schools on your original application form. There will be movement on those waiting lists over the next weeks and months and she may then secure a place at one of the schools you applied for. Kingsdale operates a lottery system and places are allocated randomly there. Your local authority should be able to inform you of the position of your child on the waiting lists of the schools you applied to. As Al-Gardener pointed out grounds for appeal was if something had been done incorrectly in the application process or if there were reasons that no other school would be suitable for your child eg on medical grounds. You can ask your local authority to place your child on the waiting list of schools you didn't apply for in the initial application process. Very few appeals are won as the criteria to uphold an appeal are very stringent. Renata
  14. There are several fallen and unsafe trees in Nunhead Cemetery and therefore it remains closed until safety and clearance works have been completed. Renata
