Hi,


We have just had a lovely 20 year old girl from Germany arrive to look after our children as their au pair. She is keen to meet other au pairs new to this area.


Please PM me if you have a new au pair who might like to meet up with her and we can exchange contact details.


Also, can anyone recommend local English classes? Our previous au pairs went to South Thames College in Wandsworth but we wondered if Lambeth College or Southwark College might offer ESOL classes at the right level?


Thanks.

Hello, our au pair, 19 from Sweden just arrived last week and is keen to meet other au pairs in the area. Please get in touch!


(goocha and birnehelene - I have sent you PM).


in terms of language classes, we have had au pairs attending classes at Brockley Rise (near Hornor Oak Park and Forest Hill Station):

You can also find ESOL at Morley College https://www.morleycollege.ac.uk/courses?utf8=%E2%9C%93&course_filter%5Bactive_tab%5D=keyword&course_filter%5Bkeyword%5D=ESOL#course_listing , and I think you have some on offer in Penge: https://baec.ac.uk/?page_id=3133

Please see attached full details of English Classes- returning 13th September, avoid the time and cost of travelling into Central London, whilst meeting other local au pairs and practise your English in a supportive environment with a Qualified Native English Teacher

Very belated reply to this thread, but we also have an au pair from Germany living with us, in Telegraph Hill (SE14), looking after our two children. She's 19 and very nice. (She's been here since early September: I'm not a regular user of this forum, so it didn't occur to me to look here or suggest to her to look when she arrived...)


If you would like to put her in touch with your au pair, please let me know by private message! (PS I think she already knows Kira in Forest Hill and they are actually meeting today, by crazy coincidence.)


Thanks

Ingrid

    • I never said that. Saying I don’t like some of the rhetoric coming from the left doesn’t mean I approve of Farage et al saying that Afghans being brought here to protect their lives and thank them for their service means there is an incalculable threat to women.    Anything to score a cheap point. It’s pretty pathetic. 
    • To be fair we are as hosed as the majority of other countries post-Covid. The problem is Labour promised way too much and leant in on the we need change and we will deliver it and it was clear to anyone with a modicum of sense that no change was going to happen quickly and actually taking the reigns may have been a massive poison- chalice. As Labour are finding to their cost - there are no easy answers.  A wealth tax seems straightforward but look how Labour have U-turned on elements of non-dom - why? Because the super rich started leaving the country in their droves and whilst we all may want them to pay more tax they already pay a big chunk already and the government saw there was a problem.
    • You don’t think there are right-wing politicians fanning this with rhetoric? Really? 
    • No party is willing to tackle the "elephant in the room" which is the national debt. It is costing the country circa £100 Billion ANNUALLY to service that debt. That is more than the defence and education budgets. That debt burden has to be reduced which in reality means cost cuts. That means cutting back state pensions, index-linked pensions for civil servants and others such as police, NHS etc. It means cutting back on universal credit and cutting the number of people who are claiming benefits.
