My 4 and a half yo son is not starting reception till we move to Devon at the end of the year, so I have him every day all day (as well as his sister who is 21 months). I am struggling to keep him happy during the week while all the other kids his age are at school.

I thought football might be an option but can't find any classes during the week.

Also any other suggestion for activities would be very welcome!

Thank you

could you not get involved in one of the forest schools or the home schooling network?


I had a similar situation with my son as I didn't want him to start until he really had to, ie age 5, and it was very difficult to find things to do. We ended up going to loads of museums - Greenwich maritime, horniman etc etc and making our own activities.

We go to this quite regularly and my son (almost 3) really enjoys it. The coach (from Millwall) is great and the games are lots of fun. From the Southwark Let's Go guide...

coffeelover - thank you. What day is it? Sounds perfect!

canela - yes, I am postponing the beginning of institutionalisation as long as possible and also would not want him to settle into a new school onto to move to another one after two months! And it is quite nice to have him to myself (although I feel I am going mad at times!)

    • I’m currently conducting exploratory research into menstrual health education in UK secondary schools and would really value the insight of PSHE leads, Heads of Year, or pastoral staff.    The research aims to understand:   How the menstrual cycle is currently taught within the RSHE framework Where schools feel confident — and where there may be gaps Whether students are taught and  asking questions around the full menstrual cycle, symptoms, wellbeing and conditions such as PMS/PMDD or endometriosis How schools support students in feeling empowered to understand their bodies and seek help appropriately Whether education around nutrition, lifestyle, and menstrual wellbeing is currently addressed   The long-term goal is to explore whether there is a need for additional, age-appropriate, medically informed support on the menstrual cycle.  I’m not selling a programme and there is no obligation beyond a 30 minute informal chat online (Unpaid). All conversations will be confidential and used only to inform the research. If you work in a UK secondary school and would be willing to share your perspective, I would be extremely grateful to hear from you. Please comment below or email me [email protected] Thank you for the vital work you do. Best wishes, Emma       
    • Nice topic and nice song!  1) Definitely top of Canonbie, looking North. 2) What used to be Francesca Cabrini school at the top of FHR. 3) Honor Oak playground, next to Camberwell New cemetery.
