Thanks Renata - do I search up this qualification and see who offers this in London? - that sounds like the perfect course for her.

My year 12 daughter is not getting on with her choices and looking to move 6th form, does anyone have experience of moving a student at this stage. She is creative and practical and not necessarily looking to go to university but looking towards apprenticeship or some other form of learning on the job. Any ideas greatly appreciated as she is not loving her current subjects (art A level - happy with tho ) but finance and psychology Btec not so much . Thanks in advance !

thank you so much Dulwichborn&bred have contacted them

I dropped my phone the other day and although the screen in not cracked it is glitching and flickering and will not respond. I usually get phones fixed one of the kiosks on Rye Lane but they are all shut. Anybody know of anyone offering a service? Many thanks

I too recently went to see Christine, I initially went for interview nerves and have since returned for further work on issues that came up in our first session. Christine is experienced, intuitive and very skilled in her work. I shall definitely return for more help - I personally found her 'life alignment' advice and work invaluable. Thanks do much Christine .

I have long suffered with nerves at interview but the last couple of interviews I've done it was almost to the point of paralysing and subsequently I didn't interview well and forgot a number of important points to questions asked . I have an upcoming interview in Jan and wanted to see if a session of hypnotherapy may help ? Please get in touch if you have used similar either locally or Se London Thanks

No complaints here - 2 daughters there and echo everything already said , the communication is great, also they seem very aware of the girls educational needs - My only fear about the school was being such a big school - I was worried that girls (particularly less academic) might be lost in a big school but that hasn't been the case. At the other end they cater really well for more able pupils too - what's not to love ... Am waiting to see how the new head fits into the school and steers the school as well as the previous head . Pm me if you want more specific info .

Thank you ! I'll head up tomorrow - appealing price too

My year 9 daughter has informed me that I need to get her some pom poms for PE , I've asked in a few shops but with no luck - I may have to resort to making them but before that I wondered if anyone knows of somewhere locally that sells them? Will try just Williams and sainsburys this weekend too...

Second recommendation for Stevie Thomas - I got her to do highlights and cut and am way more pleased than any salon colour/cut I've had in years . Very reasonable too .

Found this morning - posted in lost and found and here Please pm if its yours !

There are plenty in the 98p (!!) shop on Rye Lane about opposite Khans bargain shop (near peckham rye st) they may not have a4 size but def A5 size. Alternatively all fired up always have them am sure if you only wanted a small amount they would let you have for nominal amount . Good luck

Is there space left in 4-6 group? Have sent pm but no reply - just trying to sort out holiday activities for that week Many thanks

No water on gowlett rd - anybody else affected in this area?

Sydenham school got 68% A-C inc maths and English - their best results - really pleased as my eldest off to Sydenham in September ...

I went to a wedding with a hungry 5 month old and wore a pretty tea dress with a few buttons on top so I could bf without having to hitch the whole dress up - plus a shawl for a bit if modesty ...

Babette Cole - 'mummy laid an egg' I think it is pitched about right for that age group - quite straightforward but written in an appealing way for small children .

Has anyone used one of these for swimming following grommets? My daughter had her grommets inserted about 4 months ago and up until now has refused to entertain having one in order to go swimming, but now she has changed her mind as she wants to go swimming with her class. Does anyone have one they no longer need they would be willing to sell or alternatively does anyone know where I can buy one in ED or surrounding areas? I need it by next Tuesday so cannot order it online... Hoping the forum can come to the rescue!! Pls pm or reply to thread if you have any info - thank you

It seems most of my daughter's fellow pupils got their 1st or 2nd choice, we got our first choice - Sydenham Girls, my daughter is delighted as very luckily it was her favourite school as well as ours. Her school friends all live around Goose Green - She goes to St Johns and St Clements and the most commonly featured schools are Kingsdale, Harris Boys, Charter, Harris Girls, Forest Hill Boys and Sydenham Girls, a handful going to Haberdashers on music and a few going to independant schools. In the main I haven't heard of anyone who has not got either 1st, 2nd or 3rd choice. I have no idea whether this has anything to do with the notion that 2001/02 was supposed to be a low birth rate year...?
