Hi snowflake ...


What sort of price range are you looking at.. ??


Bearing in mind her age and that items like Mobile Phones and perhaps Cameras

are likely to get stolen by street robbers..


I would suggest something like Panasonic Lumix DMC-TX4... Great Picture qulity..

I use Nikon SLR Cameras but have a Panasonic Lumix DMC-TX4 which I carry when I am out and about.


There is a great range of prices for Cameras and if the lumix is out of your price range

I would suggest going to Currys PC World where the have a vast range of Pocket Cameras which

you can see and pick up and get a feel for...

I would go for a point and shoot by Samsung - more pixels for your pound - from ebay. If your daughter gets serious about it then she can upgrade but if she doesn't then it's not such a waste of money. The main thing is to get into taking pictures and seeing them on the screen, editing and manipulating them etc. So, access to a computer with a "user friendly" photo management programme is also important.


Looking forward to seeing some of the results of her efforts in due course.


Best wishes

Thank you for your suggestions i am some what clueless on the subject!

She has taken an interest in photography for a long time now, but I think now she at an age where I don't mind investing in a decent but reasonable priced camera.

Will definitely take a look!!

Thanks again guys!

Also worth trying Computer Exchange places - we got a lovely little Olympus for our daughter for ?25 - originally sold for about ?400. Allows you to get a better camera which is just slightly older, and you can look at them all and decide unlike Ebay. One on Walworth Road, or a couple along Tottenham Court Road around Goodge St station.

    • What is the reason for the change in name? Just curious.
    • Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous,  meaningless and empty
    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
    • if I think of Corbyn dealing with a global pandemic (a lot of his supporters and some of his family come from the woo end of the spectrum - his brother is a proper anti-vax nut), then the  invasion of Ukraine (Corbyn long record of not exactly condemning Putin even as he killed people on British soil and many other matters, I  really do shudder
