  1. Little Village Southwark https://littlevillagehq.org/southwark/the baby bank in Nunhead will take them. They support alot of families at Barry House. See their website for contact details.
  2. You could also donated to Little Village Southwark who are based in Nunhead. They collect unwanted / no longer needed toys, books, clothes and kit for babies and children under the age of 5 and redistribute to families in need. They have a monthly wishlist on their website here https://littlevillagehq.org/southwark/
  3. Yes, have seen a lot of discussion about Interhigh on Mumsnet, but nothing very recent. Just wondering if there are any local kids enrolled as the lack of a social scene is the downside of internet school - if there were other local Interhigh / online school kids it would be a nice idea to get them together.
  4. Does anyone locally have any experience of Interhigh school. It's an online school, I've just attended their open evening and researching if it would be workable for our daughter in Year 7. Any feedback, thoughts welcome.
  5. Our family is a big fan of audiobooks. We started when the kids were little using audio CDs and a CD player. Now the children are older (11 and 12 years) we have subscribed to Audible as they offer a great range of content. My issue is how best to access and listen to the content? The kids currently access it either via a laptop or iPad, but when they are listening in the evening or before bed we have a real issue with audio being listened to via a screen - like most families with kids our two are really bad at turning off the screen when asked and sometimes play a sneaky game when they are supposed to be just listening to a story. I?m also worried about exposure to the blue light in the evening which can affect sleep - the nighttime light setting option still feels quite bright. So what to do? What is the best way to listen to audiobooks without having a screen? Anyone else have this issue, ideas please - thanks.
  6. Is there anywhere local to get pushchairs properly cleaned, serviced and repaired? Can't see to find anything closer than Wembley, there must be somewhere south of the river? Any suggestions, please PM me. Thanks.
  7. It's not a public event - you need to buy a ticket http://thisisgala.co.uk/tickets/
  8. Have just signed my two kids up for this after a biking incident. Barnaby and Dean have provided some great advice already and we are looking forward to the training session.
  9. I am looking for someone to do an end of building works clean at my house in SE26. The work involves cleaning the following - kitchen, living room, dining room, hallway, cloakroom, bathroom and master bedroom. The house is virtually empty apart from a few items of large furniture. There is just a lot of dust from the plastering work. The clean needs to take place at sometime during the week commencing Monday 29 June. If you are interested please send me a PM with your availability and rates.
  10. My 6 and 7 year old still go to bed at 7! I appreciate they need less sleep, but I still adult time. They don't go to sleep straight away and are allowed to have quiet time in their rooms, reading or pottering with toys. Lights off between 7.30 - 8. At the weekend this is usually extended by half an hour. They also like to have an story cd to listen to on weekend evenings. My feeling is that although they may need slightly less sleep it is helpful to create an quiet, winding down atmosphere at the end of the day.
  11. Hi there, I wouldn't bother with the Little Clipper, we had a very wonky haircut there, definitely wasn't worth it. Village Way on Lordship Lane have always been very helpful for us.
