Hi, I am the Postnatal tea group coordinator for the Southwark & Lambeth NCT branch. I have recently been made aware that there have been no tea groups being run in SE22 for several months and I am keen to get these back up and working again.


Due to work commitments, the previous SE22 Tea Host is unable to continue to volunteer to coordinate the various tea groups and the team of hosts.


If you would be interested in helping out with these tea groups, for which there is high demand, please let me know. It's a really fun thing to do and not massively time-consuming.


If you are reading this and are a tea host who, despite having offered to help, have not been contacted recently, please accept my apologies and get in touch as I am also trying to track down everybody who has kindly volunteered in the past - unfortunately a list of the active hosts has not been provided to me, so I'm starting from scratch...


Many thanks for your patience.


Abigail

Hi Abigail,

I'm afraid I dont have the space to host a tea group but interested to know if there has been a group set up for SE22? Looked on NCT website this morning but still looks vacant but remembered there was a post on here, hence my very late reply to your thread!


I was too late for NCT classes in East Dulwich so doing them in Herne Hill but would be great to meet local Mum's too once the baby is born (January)and the tea groups sounds like a fab way to do this


Thanks

Hi


I would also be interested in coming along to these tea groups and will help in any way I can.


I am interested in meeting other mums and have joined NCT but haven't heard of anything happening in this area.


Let me know if I can help

I'm not sure whether anything ever happened with the tea groups in SE22...I certainly never heard anything, though I suppose we are bit beyond it now (ha! past it at 7.5 months!)


But there are two NCT drop in coffee mornings - Bumps and Babes - Monday am at Goose Green centre and friday am at St Faiths in North Dulwich - relaxed and tea and biscuits on offer....and lots of chat...

I did host a postnatal NCT tea group a couple of times last year and I would encourage everyone to contact Abigail and volunteer, as it is a fantastic opportunity to meet new mums with babies of similar age. I made a few good friends through the group and we still meet up regularly.


The only thing you need is a big lounge (to fit 7-10 mums with babies) Good luck :)

I have just seen this.. I don't know if any group got set up but would be very interested if it did. I have a 13 month old and am back at work part time but interested in finding out how these groups work and if I can help?

Thanks.

      How oversubscribed are the local schools? Will they be able to take on students who are currently privately-educated?

      By lollol · Posted

      Southwark and Lambeth may have some spaces but this is not the case of other London boroughs nearby particularly at secondary level. Also this is not just a London issue. There are many regions throughout the UK that have no school places available (eg Kent due to new housing developments, rural areas, Surrey, Guildford, Edinburgh etc). Just because you feel it doesn’t affect you, does not mean it’s right.  You also need to consider the proportion of foreign students in many of the private schools in the area which distorts the impression that local people can pay private school fees and suck up an additional £4-5k per child and per year. And sadly, the psychological and emotional impact on children is not even being discussed.

      Education not taxation - please consider signing this petition!

      By lollol · Posted

      Step in a child’s shoes just for one moment and think what it would be like to have to move schools in the middle of the year away from your friends, teachers, community etc. due to a political stunt. I doubt the money will even go into education. The UK will be become the only European country to tax education. Primary schools have some capacity where I live but I have enquired and there are currently no places for secondary school where I live. Again, so easy to be smug and say we should have pre planned a potential outcome 5 years ago when you live in your £2-3m homes next to the best state schools in Dulwich (like Keir Starmer!)

      Birth rate collapses sounds a bit like Armageddon.  It's a mixture of a decline following a bulge, where many schools had to increase intake, and families moving out of the capital due to high cost of housing.  Now that is an irony, that only wealthy families, many who can afford private schooling, can afford to live in many parts of London.
