snss75 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 My son goes to Bellenden, is in year 1 now and has been there since Nursery. We've always been happy with Bellenden; it's a really small school and generally the staff are very caring. My son likes it there and is doing well so we're happy :). Feel free to pm me if you have any questions.

magpiemonkey Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 My son's got a place at Bellenden too. It was our third choice, as a bit further away from us than our first two options, but I liked the school when I went for a tour.

Malarkey Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 Hi, I would love for the kids to meet-up before school begins. Anyone interested? May 20th for lunch at the Herne or Peckham Rye cafe?

magpiemonkey Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Great idea. I can't do the 20th though, but could do the 19th or the 26th.

Malarkey Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 Sorry can't do either dates. How about June 16th? Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/23100-anyone-else-from-the-forum-placed-at-bellenden/#findComment-539596 Share on other sites More sharing options...
magpiemonkey Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 I can't do 16th June! If others can do your original date of 20th May, maybe you should stick with that! Weekday mornings good too for me. Anyone else?

BellendenBear Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Would any of you mind telling me how far you live from Bellenden school? We will be applying for Sept 2013 but think we may be too far away. Do you know of they are taking a bulge class this year? I think I saw something on the forum a few months ago suggesting that they might. Thanks.

magpiemonkey Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 I'm over 800m away as the crow flies. Yes, they are taking a bulge class in September 2012 (i.e. 60 children instead of 30). Last year's catchment was 492m.

angelas Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 We also have a place at Bellenden. Our child is at the nursery there at the moment and we have been v impressed. I'd love for the kids to meet up before school (but ours is at nursery each morning) and would also be happy to meet for a coffee with parents beforehand if you have questions etc.The school summer fair is on sat 14 july which is a good way for kids to get a feel for school as well as see fire engine, have face painted etc Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/23100-anyone-else-from-the-forum-placed-at-bellenden/#findComment-540921 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lousylu Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Yes, our son is at the nursery now and has a place for September. We like it and - more importantly - he loves it!

loni Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Yes,but we were`nt placed there.My precious grandaughter is at the nursery and loves it,she got a place at Goodrich but we chose Bellenden as it is a small and friendly school,they even let a nosy nanny do a settling in day which was lovely.We are impressed by the staff and she is thriving,we are happy for her to start in reception. Popular and fashionable are not always best.You can always become involved and help to raise standards.
