Dulwich Born And Bred

Ditto what Bawdy-Nan said .

He seems focused on Habs so that hadn't helped at all . Charter is my preference, not that it matters as it seems just like Harris was the chosen provider so will Habs be the chosen one especially with James support .

We also already have two primary schools opening , Harris Dulwich and The Belham. I am actually quite angry that we have been duped somehow into signing for two Harris schools when we signed up for one Harris school only . It's the reason I am not supporting Habs as James is behind it and I don't trust anything he champions and Charter is my school of choice .

No more Harris schools . We have enough. The focus is on a secondary school and health care . Listen to what the Dulwich people want James, that is why you were voted , to represent US and we DO NOT want or need another Harris Primary school in Dulwich.

Medusa, who do you use?

And it's not waitrose 😔

Would prefer some shops that aren't food or drinks . There is the odd clothes or gift shop but the amount of eateries is just staggering ( and Estate agents ) .

Edited to remove post .

I think part of going to a local school is playdates , helping each other out , being near enough for before and after school clubs/activities . It's also not good if you have to rely on a car / bus to get to the school also .

I know quite a few Camberwell Parents who rented in Dulwich just to get a local place and then moved back to Camberwell. I was quite furious when they told me but since they can get away with it I suppose in their minds they are just doing what they can to get a good school but it's upsetting when friends then have to travel further to a school because the Camberwell lot have taken their spaces.

What about the Montessori school in Forest Hill? They are very child focused ? It's http://www.rose-house-montessori.com/chapel_cur.htm

KatC, Why don't you post an thread to meet up with Heber mums with children in year 1 then you can get to know them as it's quite daunting sometimes going into a new school .

Indian tonic water is quite nice and grown up I find . I loved trying all the olde worlde traditional ginger beers /lemonades. Iced Tea/Clearspring green teas /Fruit teas like Rhubarbs and Blackcurrant Coconut water San Pellegrino water plus their fizzies are lovely Dandelion and Burdock Belvior do some nice cordial mixtures like cinnamon , plums , rhubarbs etc. Juices like pomegranate I think you should just make it your mission to try lots of different soft drinks . Good luck !

Is there a reason this is in the lounge ?!

Lovely meeting you KatC, It might be worthwhile posting an advert on here to meet mums in the area so fhat you can get to know mums . I have to say the majority are friendly and happy to meet up for a coffee and chat.

Where is that ? LadyDeliah Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Not a shop, but Daniel's (Walters Family School > of) Taekeondo have moved to Bussey Buildings and > have a permanent base now.

All the children I know that attended that nursery absolutely loved it .

Sorry, my tone didn't come across how I intended it to , they are good points you raised but I thought if you posted it on the charter thread then it's gives them a chance to reply in the event they aren't viewing this particular thread .

Is anyone from Charter able to answer the questions raised on the Haberdasher thread ?

Maybe post on the charter thread since this is the Habs thread and they should hopefully see your questions and reply ? I am supporting both. I prefer Charter personally but happy with either .

I think Fuschia is in St Albans way?

I pay ?2.10 for organic sweet potatoes from Ocado/Waitrose. SMBS is too expensive to compare !

Arghhhhh!! I never want to come across a real life one !

Oh blimey !!! I have never seen one and hope I don't . How did you remove it ?
