Hi :)

Does anyone know what the procedure is to get a lollipop person outside our school?

I spoke to the dep. head and she said it's through the council.

I spoke to the council and they actually have no idea :S they said they will check and get back to me but all they could find was that their numbers are declining and that they think the council does not support them anymore ?!


Anyone knows???

Or maybe, do you know where there is one posted in the borough? I can go and ask them :)


Thank you! :)

Thank you everyone! It turns out it is the council's responsibility. Thanks to your lolli-spotting I asked a good friend of mine to ask the Lollipop person outside Heber and they gave me the phone number of the person who manages them. He said the council employs a company to manage them but I have to talk to the Road safety manager in Southwark and they have to decide if this is necessary. It made me think that maybe there are other options, maybe we can employ that company without the council's involvement? or maybe we can get the parents to volunteer a day and manage the crossing ourselves? I am sure there are health and safety issues to think about but well... it is a start.


One other thing that came up.... The man who manages the lollipop people (sounds like something from the wizard of oz :)) said he is looking for more workers :) So if anyone here is interested let me know and I will give you his number :) you have to work an hour in the morning and an hour in the afternoon and they pay London wage which is ?9.75 an hour.


Thanks again everyone!

      Well hello Manor men, I went to PM from 74-79. I was in O and Churchill. I can’t remember my tutor but do remember a number of bods. I’ve read a number of posts here about PM and recognise some things. Mudway was an arse. Hardly ever changed his suit.  Guys I remember are Alan Palmer, Wayne Peck ( had an older brother at the school and I think lived Peckham Road, Longleigh House), Owen McClery, Junior Gayle(Wing Chung master), David Banton , Steven Green ( I think he had green eyes), Rodney Evelyn, David Barton, Raymond Gillman (deceased), Neil Warner, Horace Marshaleck (deceased), Steven Watson (two years younger) I have a picture somewhere of the school winning a cross country event against other schools in the South London Press I think.  Teachers - Miss Pugh, Mr and Mrs Webster, Mr Thomas, New French teacher 1978/79 Miss Anspach, Mr Baugh, Mr Nelson, Mr Patel, Mr Sparks, Mr Dowse, African PE teacher, hard as nails, Mr Fenton for careers, Mr Kemel Also, my brother attended Adrian Lewis, a year younger.

      Noticeboard on Northcross Road

      By Pugwash · Posted

      One gentleman who kept the boards up to date with community notices i.e. local residents' association events, East Dulwich Community Centre, sadly died a few years ago. He never had the keys to the NX Rd board as this was outside his ward (now known as Dulwich Hill). The council changed the locks on the boards and we do not know who was given the keys. The gentleman's widow carries on with posting community notices but only on the odd couple of boards whose locks have been broken and she can lift the cover. If I remember correctly, it was the Lib. Dem councillors in ED that initiated the boards.

      Thanks, that’s very sensible advice  and I’ll most likely follow it. I shouldn’t need anything from them, and if anything, they may end up needing me as they’re likely to go first. Really appreciate your support.
