Hi Roopa,


I remember hearing Pitta Patta have a high staff turnover. A friend wasn't keen on how it was managed, but for continuuty she did leave her daughter there til she started school so it was a niggle rather than a deal-breaker. I know they have the video link but she didn't like to log in as it was hard seeing her daughter when she couldn't be there. That's all I can offer on it, haven't visited myself. What put me off was that you have to provide all their food until the kids turn 2, requires too much balancing for me anyway. good luck!

My baby has been at Oak Tree on Boveney Rd for month and loves it. I had looked around 6 nurseries in Honor Oak/ Forest Hill and Oak Tree gave the most friendly and genuine tour so i am so glad he is there. The key workers are always smiling and seem to love being around children and the owner is around a lot to keep an eye on how things are going. I had a nice chat with her last week and I really like her hands on approach. A couple of other nurseries seemed nice, eg Rubadubs near FH station, but I didn't get a good feeling from Pitta Patta as the carers seemed disinterested in the children and it didn't seem very homely. It was also a lot more expensive than the others. Good luck!

    • Maggie Browning usually very good responding to emails. Roving surgeries - we got a letter some time ago that they were in Barry Road between certain times - but neither neighbours of ourselves saw them. Face to face surgeries rarely held now due to violent attacks on MPS and Councillors.
    • Just for information: I see that the Licensing Sub-committee has the Tesco application as item 1 on their 24 July meeting agenda.  https://moderngov.southwark.gov.uk/ieListDocuments.aspx?CId=172&MId=8329. The officer's report to the committtee provides a good succinct summary.  I see, from (original) p.31 of the full public pack, (or more conveniently the supporting documents) that Tesco Legal Dept on 12 June reported that they'd agreed with the police's suggested conditions to be attached to the licence, and the police accordingly withdrew their own representation.  That leaves just one representation, from a member of the public, to be dealt with on the day. I still think it's not necessarily to be presumed that Tesco will definitely be taking over the premises.  I see that Poundland themselves were granted an off-sales licence on 21 Feb 2023, and surrendered it on 3 July 2025.  I'm not sure they actually ever used it themselves.  Did they? https://www.southwark.gov.uk/sites/default/files/2024-09/Statement of Licensing Policy 2021-2026.pdf is a full statement of the policy and its application, for thems as is interested.
