Hello ? I wanted to post about a new nursery being opened in Peckham this September. It is for two to four year olds and has 32 places. All of these are completely free ? that?s up to 55 hours per week, for 51 weeks of the year. It will be open between 7.30am and 6.30pm to enable parents to get to and from work.


Our aim is to help parents who are working or studying full time (and those who would like to get into work or education), so that the high cost of good childcare is no longer a barrier. We have secured financial backing from a charitable organisation, so that everything at the nursery is completely free ? including three meals a day and snacks, which will be freshly prepared on-site. The nursery will be run by the Harris Federation and a brilliant nursery manager has already been appointed.


The nursery will have its own dedicated building on the site of Harris Primary Academy Peckham Park, Marmont Road. The building is being renovated this summer and is a really lovely and bright space. There is also an all-weather garden so children get plenty of opportunities to play outside all year round.


Anyone interested can apply online - applications close on 26th July and offers will be made the following week.You can find out more and apply online here: https://www.harrisnurseryhubpeckham.org.uk/


There is an Open Evening on the 17th July at 6pm. This is being held at Harris Primary Academy Peckham Park. We look forward to meeting many local parents and to providing a wonderful social and learning environment for your children from September.


Best wishes,

Poornima (Harris Nursery Hub Peckham)

    • Surely the question is whether James Mcash is effective in his various roles? I've seen nothing to suggest otherwise as a GG councillor or cabinet member. No idea about the teaching but he's made a career of it, so one would think he's perfectly fine on that front too. What I do object to is him being elected under one banner and hopping under another one, I suspect out of naked self interest. His headline rationale for the move is scarcely credible. He claims "the council was “planning for funding gaps larger than those faced in almost every year of Conservative and Liberal Democrat austerity, this time imposed by a Labour government...Unless something changes, Labour cuts will devastate the local services that as residents of this fantastic borough, we all rely on.” But what he's actually talking about here is the new Fair Funding Review, undertaken by notorious Tories Angela Rayner and Jim McMahon.   https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/the-fair-funding-review-20/the-fair-funding-review-20 The Fair Funding Review is explicitly about the redistribution of resources based on updated needs assessment, which, last time I looked was a key tenet of the left (including the Greens). Mcash also claims Southwark "cannot and does not stand up the the government" but that simply isn't the case as Southwark, Lambeth and London Councils have objected to the FFR because it fails to take into account Londoners' high housing costs. https://www.southwark.gov.uk/news/2025/southwark-and-lambeth-leaders-call-fair-funding  He seems high on bluster and low on actual detail. And the great problem Greens have to overcome, like everyone else, is that the country has no money.
