My son Alex has got into Charter East , starting in September 2023, when my eldest son started someone organised a lovely welcome picnic in dulwich park over the summer hols, so I am hoping to do the same as it was really helpful for my son and his friends


So I’ll start things off here , and we can form a little WhatsApp group to organise a meet up

Hi


The Friends of charter east will be organising a welcome picnic for first weekend in September and will set up a new year 7 WhatsApp group. Details will go out to new parents via the school.

Yes I believe they have pencilled in for 2nd September? A lot of us mums have agreed we would like to meet earlier in the hols so they kids can have opportunities to swap numbers and hang out before their first day at Charter
I think that the whole purpose of having a picnic in September is that children from waiting list that will get a place during summer time will have a chance to meet everyone. The last big shakedown is in August hence first weekend of September is proposed.

    • I disagree with the who concept of tidying one room at a time. I find it's more effective to increase the overall level of tidy by 10% regularly, and take regular breaks.  Always straighten your bed first - your bed is your priority and your haven. Change the sheets if you have clean ones to use. 1. pick up all rubbish around the house; take it out. 2. pick up all crockery etc that needs a wash: put it all in one place and start to sort it out. Wash and dry whatever you can put away easily. Wash things by type - I'll do cups then plates, then cutlery, then pots..... 3. Kitchen surfaces - tidy things you can, be ruthless - everything is going to need a home. Sweep the floor, wipe the surfaces. 4. Pick up all laundry around the house. Start to sort it out so you are in control of it - wash types together - eg all sheets.  4. bathroom - so on..... Then, the entire house is an better environment. and you can just keep going.  
    • There was me overcome with memories of articles in women's magazines from the 1950s advising their readers how to be a good housewife and thinking it's like feminism never happened. Until I read the last paragraph. Be warned, this is PR from someone who runs a cleaning company.
    • Carpet can be a pain at times, the maintenance takes effort. I’ll look into that spray as a handy in-between for freshening things up. Steam cleaners are becoming more popular too and definitely seem more hygienic than a mop and bucket.  
    • I've found it quite a useful thread.  Apparently protein powders are toxic. Not that I have ever, or will ever, try them.   https://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/the-hidden-dangers-of-protein-powders
