Thanks. I'll be there.

I agree with toffeese15. Identical admission policies mean this school is of virtually no use to anyone not already living near to Charter. On these grounds I wish to withdraw my support for the Charter bid and will be fully supporting Haberdashers.

Sorry, I'm getting confused with all the talk of various schools! Just incredibly frustrated that I live in a total black hole for secondary schools

My daughter will also be starting secondary school in 2016. We live in Nunhead but will be too far from the proposed site to get a place. So Nunhead School will not be for people living in Nunhead. Ridiculous.

I agree with the need for fair banding. We live in Nunhead and aren't in catchment for any secondary schools. I have a daughter in year 4 - do I really have to move to get her a place in a local school??

Rolls and Rems in Lewisham is good

We have a spare Hawaii! Will PM you for your address and stick it in the post

My friends have just finished renovating a cottage in Sheringham which they are now renting out. They have three small children of their own so have ensured the cottage is fully equipped for fsmilies. Having grown up in Norfolk they are also full of recommendations for best ice cream, perfect crabbing spot, best pub lunch, optimum kite flying beach etc. http://www.glavenvalley.co.uk/criss-cottage/ They still have the last week in July available but August was completely booked within their first week on the rental market!

I completely agree with LondonMix. As I stated further up the thread I DO want to state a preference. I DO NOT want to support both, stating that each one is my first choice! What a ridiculous situation.

But what if we would like to state a preference??

As a Nunhead resident I feel really angry about this. How can you call a school Harris Nunhead if it is nowhere near Nunhead?? Is the name supposed to make Nunhead residents believe that it will somehow help the children living here get a school place?? My children are already at primary school but it was a worrying time as we are not in "catchment" for any - and the secondary situation is even worse.

We have one and think its brilliant. Did have to go and buy a whole new set of saucepans though as our old ones didn't work on it!

I don't think I would ever feel happy leaving my child in a nursery where this had happened. The fact that they hadn't even noticed is truly terrifying.

I had no idea the two smaller ones were free. And both times we walked past there wasn't a queue and they weren't full.

Saw the man in charge of the slide having a row with a 10 year old boy who was asking if his friend could go back on as he'd tripped at the top and fallen down rather than slid down. The man just said "go away. NOW!". Think it could have been handled slightly better!!

I agree edanna. They were rude and unfriendly to adults and kids alike. Absolutely no need for it. It ruined the fair a bit for us.

Anyone else horrified by the bouncy slide at the Goose Green Fair charging ?1 for ONE go????

Mudlarking on the beach along the Southbank is good. Can always find some pottery or an old clay pipe to take in for show and tell.

We were 7th on the list for our first choice school a few years ago. We got offered a place two weeks in to term. There is quite a lot of movement is I think you have a very good chance.

Oh god, that's terrible. What reason did they give?? There are some very helpful admissions experts on the primary education section of mumsnet who are always happy to give advice.

I'm another one agreeing with SplendidLikePeckham. I have a daughter in year 4 and am already terrified of where she might end up at secondary school as we seem to be in catchment for none!

The products sound great. Are they already on sale?

Joyrides seen to have come back in to stock again after a manufacturing problem. They disappeared for months but I've bought a few packets recently. I am stockpiling in case they disappear again! Both my children are carsick. I will keep a look out got kwells kids for you. Can also recommend phenergan which can be bought in morrisons pharmacy. Has to be taken the night before but always works for us.

Everyone has to have a ticket to the park. The food is pretty bad and very expensive!

Boots on Rye Lane has them back in stock
