Any advice where to get them (local or online)? Tried mothercare.com but they only start at size 6 (she is a 4.5 but i want them to last all winter so i imagine i'd buy a size 5). Tried John Barrett, but they also only start at 6. A friend went to Clarks on Rye Lane and said they don't have anything in... any other suggestions? By winter boot I mean a weatherproof (or as near as possible) calf/knee boot that is hopefully snug and warm too...

I'm pretty sure Clarks do them in smaller sizes unless things have changed. I think they have different styles up to a size 6. My daughter definitely had some in a 5 a few years ago. Check online, perhaps J Barnett don't stock them. You can order online then collect at a local store, I've done this at the Lewisham branch. Also try the ED Warehouse, they stock various brands as do Buff I'm Dulwich Village.
mine has 4.5 as well and I got him Timberland boots (ankle high with laces) size 5. they are fab, waterproof (goretex), very very light and are made for trekking, so he can climb up the little hill without falling down as the sole grips the ground very well. i don't think you'll find anything close to them in Clarks in terms of quality and performance. i was so impressed that i got my 4 year old daughter a pair as well, they run around in jeans in winter anyway, so it didn't bother me that they look boyish. would certainly recommend, i got both for about 20 pounds vs 50 pounds full price, amazon always has some on sale, just look for sizes, some models come small some don't. they also do higher knee versions and more girly ones if this is what you're after.

I took my daughter to Gently elephant today to get some shoes and was very impressed with the range of shoes and boots on offer. The owners were very attentive and gave good advice. They don't just do shoes but have lots of gorgeous clothes, books and toys - recommended!

    • Why don’t you speak to head of English at private schools? Might be able to recommend a senior student.. pity now summer hols.   Was how my friend found a tutor for both their kids - maths and science and English.. They also have some mag covering schools as well
    • 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!
