School tour tomorrow at 9,15am, all welcome!


Enter through the school gates on Tintagel Crescent and go to the school office. Please try to be on time as the tour sets off very sharpish. This is a great chance to meet the headteacher, have a look round the school and then join the PTA afterwards, we will be in the onsite breakfast/afterschool club annexe with cups of tea and coffee and maybe even a biscuit.


See you there!

Parents/carers whose children are starting in September are more than welcome to attend the tour (indeed encouraged!) but it is not exclusively for them. There are meet the teacher sessions planned for later this month when you will also have the opportunity to sign up for stay and play sessions for your new reception starter to come and have a taste of the reception classroom whilst you tearfully clutch a cup of tea nearby. Attendance at those are strongly recommended, if you haven't had the details of the meet the teacher sessions then contact the school for details (my understanding is that the dates of the stay and plays are arranged at the meet the teacher sessions)


The tour is for and parent or carer looking for a school place for their child whether that be in the near or distant future, for reception or the upper years.


We look forward to seeing you there


GGPTA

It's the general school tour, primarily for people deciding where to apply for their kids next year but if your child is starting this September and you want to have another look around you are welcome to come along. There will be a meeting at the school later on before school breaks up for parents with children entering reception this coming September.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
