Hello,


We're getting close to choosing a nursery for our son to attend from three (he's currently two) and have visited a few different montessori nurseries now, with our preference being Dulwich Oaks Montessori, though before making a final decision I'd really appreciate any personal views people may have whose children currently attend there. The things we like about it are the large open-plan internal space and large garden and that it's soon to start forest school-type sessions and provide cooked meals, though the thing that would clinch it for us is if other people were happy with their children being there -- so pls do let me know your views. Also happy to hear views by PM if you'd prefer. Many thanks in advance.

Hi, my son started last September (2.9 years) and has had a wonderful time. He had an initial blip about not wanting to be dropped off but that was due to his personality rather than anything to do with the pre school. I've found the staff to be wonderful and caring and so far no staff have left so great continuity for him. They have helped my son to grow in confidence and I would have no problems recommending them.

    • An excellent point, ed. I reckon you could possibly get the cheese down to 75g per person depending on how many courses, the cheese media one is using and the accompiaments. A thicker biscuit can really increase the power of your cheese dollar. I'd also recommend putting all the last year's chutneys and pickles from the back of the cupboard in a single Kilner jar, adding a bit of malt vinegar and a grated apple, then attaching a hand written label saying 'Pikey's Pickle: Autumn 2025'.  It's not Megan Markle levels of domestic deceit, but it works every time. Pre-portioning cheese seems arbitrary, but I think acceptable when it's 20 people. It gives people an idea of how much a serving is, and negates the issue of somebody, normally a brother in law or cousin's new boyfriend, not taking their share of the rind. Remember, you're doing them a favour. Somewhere in the room there's an older family member who could see it and never forget. It's disinheritance stuff. It also gives rise to the great postprandial game of 'Cheese!' where guests can swap their share of cheese for another. Tastier than Monopoly and far less cardboardy, cheeses can be traded like currency or commodities. Hard and soft cheeses, dependent on their relative strengths, normally settle at close to parity but I've seen blue cheeses trade at less than half the price.  It's a Stilton lover's paradise, if you can hold your nerve.  Goat cheese lovers can clean up, but need to beware. As volatile as the 1970's Argentinian Peso, it's up and down like a bride's nightie.   I think I'll stick to Neal's Yard, then.
