Goose Green is a happy, friendly, vibrant school which is "on the up".


Come and see for yourself at our open day on 9th November.


There will be three tours through the day conducted by the Headteacher Sharron Marland giving parents and carers the opportunity to see our school in action from Early Years (nursery and reception) through to Year 6.


The tours will start at 9.15am, 11am and 1.45pm and last about 45 minutes. Please note that the 11am tour will not include the nursery.


After the tour, parents of current pupils will be available for a chat and to answer any additional questions you may have and to provide coffee, tea and biscuits.


There is no need to reserve a place; simply turn up at the gates on Tintagel Crescent shortly before your chosen time and make your way to the school office .


We look forward to seeing you there.

The lovely ladies in the office tell me that they have lots of people calling up about open day who have seen this post or the posters up around ED.

Hopefully lots of you will be able to come along and so even if you have done one of the small tours in the past do think about coming and having another look as it will be an opportunity to meet other parents of prospective pupils and parents of children who are already at the school

See you there

Thanks for letting me know about the open day. I am one of those Mums who is entering the minefiled of school applications at the moment and it is extremely confusing. I was working so was only able to attend half a session but from my limited time there found the school to have an extremely warm and friendly atmosphere with excellent facilities and space for the children. I was also extremely impressed by the head mistress who took the time to show us round. Also found the nursery extremely impressive

I couldn't make this as my wee son was poorly. I hope you can help me with a question goosegreenpta? My son is 3 in December, I have had his name down at Goose Green nursery since last year and I wondered a)When the terms starts for 3 year olds (his birthday 6th December when he turns 3) and b)How and when I have find out if has been accepted.


Many Thanks

Steph

Hi Steph, such a shame you couldn't make it and I hope your son is feeling better.

There will be other tours on the first monday of December and January (that is after the school returns from the christmas break)which I will advertise here on the forum so keep an eye out or visit the school website.

As far as I am aware your son is eligible to start nursery the term after he is 3; i.e January 2010 and then he would (if you applied and he fulfilled the criteria) start reception in September 2011. Give the office a call (after 9.30 is best) and ask Donna whether you have a place; if she can't help ask for the head of the nursery to give you a call. Or call in to the office in person.

It's a lovely nursery and very popular so good luck! If he does get a place please feel free to sign onto the pta mailing list to get a flavour of all the good and hard work that is going into improving the school and having some fun.

I attended the open day on Monday. It was a really good opportunity to see the school, and the head teacher Ms. Marland was very receptive and informative in answering questions and offering parents the opportunity to speak to her or other staff outside of the visit. I felt the school had a great nurturing atmosphere, the children were very well behaved,and the facilities looked very good. The PTA session after the tour was also a great idea as it gave the opportunity to ask lots of questions to parents of children there, and get a further perspective. If Goose Green is one of your local schools I would say go along to one of the next open days to see the potential for yourself.
Thanks for the feedback sleepy and sormina. There will be other tours on Monday 7th December in the morning and afternoon. I will post further details soon. The morning tour will take place after the monthly pta coffee morning which is at 9.15 and anyone attending the tour will be welcome to attend the coffee morning too.

    • Calling All Private Chefs – We’re Looking for You! We’re currently looking for talented private chefs in and around East Dulwich (and across London) for a number of exciting upcoming bookings and events. If you’re a chef, or know someone who is, we’d love to hear from you. Please drop your name, contact info, and a quick intro below or message directly. Thanks! Anthony Bird & Co Events
    • Since you’re clearly not experiencing what we are I’m not sure I agree with any of your points. I also asked for anyone else having a similar problem… it’s absolutely fine if you’re not but I’d appreciate less of the “go live your life”. There is no need to comment with that tone, it doesn’t provide us with any help for the matter. Nor is it polite. We’re a very kind family simply not wanting damage and don’t find the actions necessary. It’s been the same driver/delivery for a while and this never used to happen. I wouldn’t post this on the forum if it wasn’t getting so frustrating. Again, the kids and myself have kindly asked for this to stop a few times with no success. We all work hard for our living and would never want (nor are we trying) to rid someone of their livelihood. But similarly, I don’t find it fair. Please feel free to PM me if anyone has any advise or shares the same.  
    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who, by moving to your position on the right, are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
