Secondary Schools for people living on Underhill
savage replied to Gloves's topic in The Family Room Discussion
Harris boys & girls would be an option as well as St. Thomas the apostle (boys school). Kingsdale is always worth a try as it?s lottery. You could also try Harris Crystal Palace which is also a lottery, but quite a slim chance as they only offer a small percentage of places to children who live more than 2 miles away -

Recommending Plumber - Hunter Heating Solutions
savage replied to HunterHtingSolutions's topic in Reviews
Hunter heating solutions have just finished installing a new boiler, some new radiators & smart thermostats in my house. They provided a quote within a few days of visiting, started the job on time each day & were professional throughout. I can not recommend highly enough. -
Recommendation for floor sanding - Back to Wood
savage replied to Clare C's topic in Request a Tradesperson
Steve & Nicola from Back to Wood have just completed two rooms for me. Not only do the floors look beautiful, but they completed the job in good time & were polite & professional throughout. Their pricing was fair for the job & I would definately recommend for anyone wanting to have their floors restored. -
Hi Wildcherry, My son was number 100 within his band last year on offer day & was offered a place on the second day of school starting. Between offer day & the start of the summer holidays he moved up the list by about 20 places. By the middle of the holidays he was around 50. Kingsdale wrote to everybody on the list in August asking if we wanted to remain. Once the results of the mailing were confirmed, my son was at number 7 (day before school started) & the rest is history. I know that each year is different, but I think you will have a very good chance of getting in. Good luck!

Having done my research on heating engineers locally, I was confident that Peter Bennison would be reliable. But I have waited in for 3 hours today for him to show up for an appointment. He hasn?t answered the phone or attempted to call or message to let me know he was running late. When I did manage to get through to him I was told he would be with me in half an hour. Still with a no show, I then received a message to tell me that he has been unable to park within 4 streets (despite there being garage next door) & so he will not be coming today after all. No apology was offered. Shame on you Mr Bennison that is no way to treat customers & I will now be looking for someone else.

Secondary School Places - South LL
savage replied to Champagne Supernova's topic in The Family Room Discussion
1.4km doesn't sound right to me, knowing the positions of people that have & haven't been offered a place, it's more like 1km. -
I am a parent at Heber & I know that the majority were given the new Charter. The catchment seems to extend to the junction of Rodwell/ Heber Road junction with Crystal Palace road all the way back to Barry road & underhill. There were a few Harris boys & girls around the Upland Road area (close to Peckham Rye Park) & a bit further up Crystal Palace Road. The old Charter extended to Melbourne grove & colwell, but didn't quite extend to some parts of Dovercourt.

It looks as if George introduced himself to the new craft shop on Lordship lane! https://m.facebook.com/125867324107056/photos/a.1074820765878369.1073741828.125867324107056/1420022158024893/?type=3&source=48

Returning to work after long 'career' break. Help!
savage replied to louloulabelle's topic in The Family Room Discussion
It's also worth keeping an eye on the forum, as I've found a couple f Coal admin roles this way. Good luck -
And another recommendation for Nikko! My husband called out Pimlico plumbers to unblock a waste pipe underfloor. 1 hour & ?125 later he gave up as his Hoover couldn't suck out the blockage. So we called Nikko, after reading all the recommendations. He came up with several strategies for clearing it, and boy did he persevere! His determination paid off & he managed to clear the blockage. Nikko was a clean, polite, personable & very, very reasonable with his pricing. I couldn't recommend highly enough. Kate

Charter School East - consultations
savage replied to @Woodwarde's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
James, Just to clarify, the NHS will not be handing over the remainder of the land until 2019 (main hospital), is that correct? Will there be a guarantee/ contract in place to ensure that this is the latest it will happen? 2019 is bad enough, but I'm also concerned how achievable that date is bearing in mind how incredibly slowly the NHS move!

The view from Waterloo bridge is my favourite of London. I'm also a Londoner & agree it is a fantastic place to grow up -

Consultation for the Charter School East Dulwich
savage replied to littlek1cker's topic in The Family Room Discussion
Simon, I just read that you will only be taking 120 pupils in the first years intake, rather than 240 proposed. I guess this is because the temporary site is not large enough to accommodate more? Can you tell me if this is the final figure, or whether this might increase? Also, do you expect a reduced number of pupils in the second year also? Kate -
I am the originator of this post, not Harris. I have simply asked the question & have also put it to Harris ED. I can assure you that they have no desire to use the Rye, as they are more than happy with the sports facilities they already make use of. When I received that response from them, I really couldn't understand it. Why would they be happy to spend part of their lessons transporting the kids to & from a sports facility, when they have perfectly good sports fields opposite? I'm now learning why! I cannot believe some people's views on here towards a school using the playing fields opposite. I'm guessing that they do not want to rock the apple cart. I think this is a huge shame.
