Hi,


Last September I started to teach a small group of 8 year olds to knit which has been a great success - the girls are still with me and come religiously once a week for an hour's lesson. It's been brilliant to see their lovely creations grow week by week. I would really love to expose more children to this amazing craft every week. I have been very fortunate to have been offered a work space at Captured on the Rye (thank you Lorraine) on Mondays from 4-5pm and if anyone has any ideas/suggestions of how to bring a small group together on a regular basis I would be grateful. Let's bring this wonderful craft back into the limelight!


Thanks for any suggestions and ideas in advance.

My youngest student is a boy of 6 who knits every week. The size of the group of children depends on their age. Obviously the younger the smaller the group. Bear in mind the child must really want to learn and not because you want them to.


And yes I would be happy to come and teach from your home. I look forward to hearing from you.

    • I’m currently conducting exploratory research into menstrual health education in UK secondary schools and would really value the insight of PSHE leads, Heads of Year, or pastoral staff.    The research aims to understand:   How menstrual cycle is currently taught within the RSHE framework Where schools feel confident — and where there may be gaps Whether students are taught and  asking questions around the full menstrual cycle, symptoms, wellbeing and conditions such as PMS/PMDD or endometriosis How schools support students in feeling empowered to understand their bodies and seek help appropriately Whether education around nutrition, lifestyle, and menstrual wellbeing is currently addressed   The long-term goal is to explore whether there is a need for additional, age-appropriate, medically informed support on the menstrual cycle.  I’m not selling a programme and there is no obligation beyond a 30 minute informal chat online (Unpaid). All conversations will be confidential and used only to inform the research. If you work in a UK secondary school and would be willing to share your perspective, I would be extremely grateful to hear from you. Please comment below or email me [email protected] Thank you for the vital work you do. Best wishes, Emma       
    • Nice topic and nice song!  1) Definitely top of Canonbie, looking North. 2) What used to be Francesca Cabrini school at the top of FHR. 3) Honor Oak playground, next to Camberwell New cemetery.
