My son started Bessemer last week and is really happy there - Today he came home saying 'we had a visitor today and we did Yoga - look' and proceeded to show me positions I have never been able to do! Anyway apparently this is going to be a weekly thing......I know literacy and the rest are important but with a great teacher and a small class (max 15 til Jan)I'm pretty confident they're on the ball and will work hard on these too...


The point of this post is to let any parents who are still waiting for a local place, or are not happy with where they are, know that Bessemer still has places available and they are fully aware that many parents may want a stop-gap while waiting to get into somewhere else nearer etc.....


If you are still in a difficult position re a reception place do give them a ring and have a look at the place..you may be pleasantly surprised...


PS They also have places at their nursery for any kids who have reached 3 and a half.....


Feel free to PM me with any questions...

Really pleased to hear that is going so well for you Cora. I know that parents making their applications now are worried that there are not enough local places to go around so in a way your post is reassuring! 15 in the class that's better than Alleyn's!
Some of my daughters friends went to Bessemer & had a lovely time. The parents were strongly supportive of the school and were as happy with their kids education as I was (am) with mine at Dulwich Hamlet. It always sounded like a lovely community school to me.

    • I’m not sure how many other people have experienced this; but both me and one of my friends have the same story. Around Crawthew Grove and Crystal Palace Road: I was followed by a large fox right on my heel. At first I didn’t notice because I had my headphones on, but then I noticed my shadow had an extra lump in it, funnily enough, it was a fox, very very close to my feet. Even if I sped up walking it just tried to get closer - it was quite frightening actually, it was quite clear that it wanted to nip me. I didn’t know what to do so, I started to reprimand the fox and walked slowly away from it, facing it - which it didn’t seem to like and backed off a bit. I then proceeded to speed-walk away.   Quite frankly, the whole situation was quite embarrassing and a little bit frightful as I’d never had a fox even come up to me. I’ve heard of particularly curious foxes that might come up to someone who beckons them, and maybe even bite that person, but I’ve never heard of a fox chasing someone. The amount of confidence that it had was incredible.    When it happened, I was on the way to see some friends, and once I had told one of them, she told me the same thing happened to her.  if anyone else knows anything about this bitey fox then let me know!
    • Another recommendation for Andy. I needed an old kitchen removed as an emergency. Andy came over quickly and did a fantastic job. I have used Andy a few times. He is punctual, helpful and always does an  excellent job.
