My daughter is due to start reception next year so I am embarking on many open days at the moment as well as general school research. It seems that SJSC, The Belham and Goose Green are all well loved and much commented upon, but everyone goes a bit quiet when it comes to Bellenden.


Is anyone able to give an opinion either good or bad regarding Bellenden...

I think it's a very good school. It has excellent results and they have moved into a brand new site. I've been there in a volunteer capacity for the Red Box project and have been impressed by the staff I met. It has a higher than average number of pupil premium students AND has excellent results which I think makes it more impressive than schools with a lower than average number of pupil premium students. It used to be further away from East Dulwich - near Peckham Rye Station so not many children from the area went there (my own son went to Goose Green Primary). Now it's situated nearer, perhaps it will become more popular.

      Butter and Crust

      I’ve been looking at their website from time to time over the last few years and I was sure that at least one loaf - the signature sourdough - is supplied by the BreadBread bakery who are at a lot of markets at weekends and who used to have a small cafe bakery shop in Brixton Market. I used to go there specifically to get their bread.   They are also affiliated with Franco Manca.  That was the first FM, co-founded by Bridget Hugo, who died last year. BreadBread also supplied the bread for the now closed Crooked Well pub restaurant (but now open under a different name - The Kerfield Arms)  in Grove Lane SE5.  Not sure where the pastries come from but it doesn’t seem possible to choose which ones to have delivered.  I do think they chop and change the suppliers from time to time.  I like the look of the (expensive) crullers they sometimes have plus granola, the savoury pastries and expensive bagels.  They frequently have special offers for a first delivery.  40% is the highest discount I’ve seen so far. I too would be worried about a fox being an opportunist.

      Maybe the signor in question spotted some hot jacuzzi action and just had to stop in?
