Oh dear - I'm of the lazy mum school of parenting. I'm off to Greenwich Picture House for the baby - friendly 'big scream' movie. This week it's Helen Mirren and James McEvoy in a film about Tolstoy's life and legacy.


I'll probably fall asleep after 10 minutes after the night I've had.


Starts at 11.30am.

Snowboarder - me too! The last few films we've tried to see with toddler I've spent most of the time either:


- apologising to our neighbours as she climbs over their laps

- running up and down the stairs, hunched over like Quasimodo, after her

- likewise with the big, as she sees it - running track, just in front of the screen

- or playing with the automatic doors into the car park (after I've totally given up!)


Does anyone know what age they actually start behaving and watching the film? I've seen the first 10 mins of so many films now!


ClareC - Greenwich, Brixton and, I think, CLapham all do 'Big Scream' films. It costs a pound to become a member, then you can go until your child is 1 year old. Just double check my info when you get a chance as the site is down at the mo, so I can't double check myself.

But there's a film every Wed at 11.30 and they have a good range between the popular blockbusters and more high brow stuff.


It's hiilarious going there - women with their boobs out bfing and babes crawling everywhere. Totally chaotic, but very friendly and welcoming. I've seen the odd chap there too - but they kept a very low profile and sat very low in their seats ;-)

My kids have been able to manage short animated films from about age three onwards. Test them out at home with a film first though!! I'm just waiting for my littlest one to 'come of age' then we can all go to the cinema on a rainy saturday afternoon...not that we get many of those in this country....

    • What is the reason for the change in name? Just curious.
    • Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous.
    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
    • if I think of Corbyn dealing with a global pandemic (a lot of his supporters and some of his family come from the woo end of the spectrum - his brother is a proper anti-vax nut), then the  invasion of Ukraine (Corbyn long record of not exactly condemning Putin even as he killed people on British soil and many other matters, I  really do shudder
