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

      Inpost "Parcel was refused" at Barry's - anyone else?

      By ianr · Posted

      I'm glad that Barry's have posted.  Their mention of the merger soon led me to (a) bushy-tailed  PR guff about the new member joining the inpost 'family' and promising a bright happy world of lockers etc ahead. and (b) clear signs that the same problems related here seem to have been current and widespread even three months ago.  That's just from looking at one thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/vinted/comments/1nlv3u2/yodelinpost_merger_issues/

      Do we still get 50+ outdoor community events per year? All the ones round here seem to have been cancelled, like the Christmas Cracker and the summer equivalent and the Small Business Saturday event etc.  Even on the Southwark Presents page the only events in East Dulwich in the foreseeable future are non-council events organised by other people. https://www.southwark.gov.uk/southwark-presents?event_price=All&localgov_event_locality[0]=239&date_min=&date_max=&search=&page=2

      @CPR DaveWe are talking about Lambeth Council, not Southwark, but I agree. It will be interesting to see if Lambeth fill part of that space with another hire out to a private events company.  As to the idea that what is gained financially from hiring out Peckham Rye Park is a good trade off, does not account for long-term damage to the park and the loss of access to the community for a month at least, in the best summer months where trees and shrubs are in full bloom and animals are birthing or rearing youngsters. For the Council to claim they are 'green' when they allow this is hypocrisy at its finest. @Northern Star Thanks, so they say. I'd love to see a list of these high quality free events and what they entail. I am not aware of any high quality free events in and around ED. Stand to be corrected though. Crikey, seems like they cannot even let Lordship Lane have Christmas lights this year.
