My son has been offered a place there (starting Jan 09). It wasn't one of our preferences, but only because we thought (mistakenly it turns out) that we lived close enough to others like DKH and St John's & St Clement's.


Ofsted report looks pretty good, but it does seem to be the only school in the SE15/SE22 area that no one has an opinion on. I'm hoping that's a good sign!:) My wife called the school a week or so ago to arrange a visit, but apparently they'll arrange an open day post exams.

I'm afraid this is only about third hand but my mum's neighbour's child has been going to Bellenden for a couple of years and is really impressed with it. I think she also couldn't get into her 1st choice etc but is now very pleased to be there. Good teachers apparently. I also went to Bellenden but that was over 30 years ago so I think it's changed a bit since then!

      The Mansion Tax

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!

      I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices.

      How late is your Christmas Card

      By Cancerian · Posted

      Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
