Au Pair in Forest Hill


dcptn

Recommended Posts

Hello! We have just had a new au pair start to work for us. I am just wondering if anybody can recommend good places for English lessons? I have seen that there are adult educational classes in English run by Lewisham and available in Brockley. Does anyone have experience of these - bearing in mind that her English is already of a pretty high standard? Also, is there a group for au pairs in Dulwich/East Dulwich/Forest Hill, as I know that she would really like to meet some local friends. Many thanks!

Hi there


I'm afraid I can't answer your question directly but I am hoping that you might be able to help me!


I live in Forest Hill also and am currently looking to find an au pair. It's the first time we have done it and I'm using au pair world and childcare.co.uk. The problem is however, that I'm find it hard to find someone suitable. Do you happen to have any tips?


Sorry for hijacking your thread...


Thanks

Hi DCPTN,


We're int eh same position with our au pair who's English is already pretty good. Our last au pair went to this place (crappy name but good lessons) http://tropicsglobalcollege.co.uk/contact_us/ on a Friday afternoon. They do a 2 hour assessment so the level is pitched right.


Let me know if she want to meet a friend! Paula is 24 and from Spain - and very lovely.


Helena. I will pm you this message too

    • I got this  interesting email today. At least some (albeit apparently very few) shoplifters seem to have been arrested, though I wonder what the criteria were. Obviously that is only the ones arrested as a result of this particular initiative. Met Engage Logo Joint Partnership Success – Operation Roscoea, Southwark We’re pleased to share the success of Operation Roscoea, a joint partnership anti-social behaviour (ASB) initiative carried out in Southwark last week. This multi-agency operation saw eight partner representatives from six support organisations conducting outreach patrols alongside officers from our Trust, Confidence and Engagement Team. These joint efforts led to numerous new referrals into support services, ensuring vulnerable individuals are connected with the help they need. Neighbourhood policing teams also carried out joint patrols with Southwark Council wardens, who now hold newly designated enforcement powers. This enhanced collaboration has strengthened our collective ability to respond to ASB and community concerns. Operational highlights included: Six arrests made by officers from North Southwark Town Centre Team, St George’s, North Walworth, Faraday, Newington Ward, Chaucer, and the Proactive Crime Team: 2 for possession of a Section 5 firearm (CS spray) 1 for possession of Class A and B drugs 1 individual wanted for theft 2 for shoplifting ASB enforcement activity included: 2 Community Protection Notices issued to persistent offenders Numerous intelligence reports submitted to support ongoing investigations This operation is a testament to the dedication and teamwork of our local officers and partner agencies. Thank you to everyone involved for your continued commitment to making Southwark safer and more resilient. We look forward to building on this momentum in future deployments.

    • I've seen it in the same place the past two Fridays. I'm assuming it's some sand that's left over from when the old sand filters failed. When that happened there was lots of sand on the bottom. I'm guessing it'll only go if they use a pool vacuum to clean the bottom.
    • Maybe because you would have thought such an incident  would have been publicised, or  someone on here would know what it was? On the face of it it seems odd, especially if they were on blues and twos, if there was no serious  reason for it. Unless, as I said, it was some kind of training exercise?
    • If true I was told that the new swimming pool at Canada Water is also closed and will not open until end November/December due to problems.
