Hi has anyone from the herne hill/sunray estate area got children starting school at Bessemer Grange in September? All of my sons nursery friends in this area will be going to a different school. I know it seems a bit premature, but the summer holidays will be here before you know it. We are reasonably new to the area, and having built up a good network of friends and playmates, they are all going to a different school. My son has a history of taking time to settle in, maybe if he saw a few familiar faces, it would make the course a little easier for him.
Thanks Leta, that's good to know. Thing is I cant make Thursdays. The catchment area can widen if it means more people are interested in meeting up? There are probably a few in east dulwich who are going to Bessemer, I'd like to include you too!

By way of reassurance, when my very quiet little boy started school, he didn't know

anyone either, all of his NCT and nursery friends were going to other schools. However

he managed just fine, small children seem to make friends pretty easily and boys somehow rub

along together without being too concerned with having a best friend. (Just my experience of course!)

But obviously a nice idea to know a few friendly faces beforehand.

Hi Bodsier,

we heard yesterday that our son has a place at Bessemer. We live in Peckham so it's quite a distance for us, but I'm off to have a look round tomorrow, it's likely to be the only place we are offered. I'd be happy to meet up if you like, PM me?

My son is in nursery in Bessemer and loves Mrs Osei.She work in nursery and all the children loves her(specialy my son).

My son for the first 2 3 weeks was in bits that a have to leave him there,but after he cant wait to go nursery(mrs Osei helped him a lot and reasured him)


all the best

    • Thanks for the suggestions! If the Angel Oak is the pub on the edge of the Rye, it's probably not too far, but there might be more central (to East Dulwich) pubs to try first. No way will Nyge and I  ever  go to the Cherry Tree again, sorry. We had the most appalling Christmas Day meal there,   which cost us nearly two hundred pounds (for two people) without drinks. It was the only place within walking distance  locally which had availability that day, apart from the Plough (which ironically we wanted to avoid after previous bad experiences with the food  there). We did complain at the time, and were given a free bottle of wine (we don't often drink wine and were having beer with the meal) but we did not want to make a huge fuss and spoil other people's day as well.  Our detailed complaints in an email  were never properly addressed, and my last email to the manager was never answered.
    • Looking for an iPod - preferably a classic - with at least 60gb storage.  Anyone have one hiding in a drawer? Thanks. 
    • Sorry to have missed this one but hope to make the next.  Re suggestions, is the Angel Oak too far?  Or the Cherry tree
    • Not strictly a new place but new to me: stumbled across a fabulous cocktail bar at 210 Rye Lane - we loved the gorgeous, eclectic interior, they make any cocktail you can imagine and will be doing small plates. Think it's called XOTO? opposite the Tesco express at that end of Rye Lane.
