Hi Steph

I am a member of the PTA at Goose Green.

On Mon 7th Dec, we have a coffee morning planned and there will also be some parents looking round the school.

Please come along at 9.15ish and speak to parents whose children just started nursery/school in Sept.

Some of these parents were also worried at 1st, but I believe we are all honest with our opinions and will freely give them to you if asked


Any queries please pm me. Thanx

Hi Steph, my child started at GG in september, I won't be at coffee morning as have to be at work but happy to be PM'd. We are very happy with his teachers and the leadership of the school. He didn't go to the nursery so I have no personal experience of it but it has the most amazing playground and seems a happy place and benefits from being involved in school events; xmas fair, cake sales, summer carnival, abel and cole scheme etc. I have put my daughters name down for a place when she is old enough.

The nursery is on the same site as the school on Tintagel Crescent; if approaching from Goose Green Roundabout, Tintagel is the road right next to the roundabout with charity shop on one corner and estate agent opposite that, if coming from ED station side, turn up Elsie Road and Tintagel is first left.

If the school gates are closed just press the buzzer and the office will buzz you in. Go to the office if coming only for the tour or the after school club room for the coffee morning plus the tour (this is in the building to your left as you walk in).

Hi


My son attended the wonderful Amott Rd pre school and still misses it! Does anyone know of an afternoon 'pre school' like Amott Rd - in the afternoons. My son is at nursery for mornings only but really needs a couple of afternoons a week also. Does anyone have any suggestions. Many thanks

    • Thanks for that - none  of mine  have been Mordena - whilst vulnerable cat, think I will just take my chances… Will be having flu though - certainly not by choice - much prefer not to but in vulnerable group.. Avoided them until last year…. Luck of drawer if you are as sick as fog  or just sore arm … assume - god knows - that flu jab is same throughout country.       
    • Wow, that is what it costs for one prisoner. So they get full board and lodging, 24 hour  monitoring  in over populated prison, we are led to believe, minimum exercise, assume a tv in each cell provided - in USA it is together with wash hand basin and c toilet - some have showers as well.   Clearly this amount of money takes  into account overstretched and overworked prison officers, protection for them, counselling which is, in my opinion a bare minimum dealing with prisoners in all settings. Do if Sweden can look outside the box, why can’t we? Or are we just not bothered at all / read statistics some where that reoffending is normal and to be frank, with economy as it is at the moment re employment, cost of living and homelessness..not surprised they reoffend to get back inside - food provided, roof over your head - much better than street living, mixing with wrong crowd, trying to get roof over your head, find a job where 90 % won’t employ you as been inside..
    • @beansprout The Swedes seem to have a useful strategy with regard to offenders  which has reduced repeat offending.  I agree that prison time for minor offences is a complete waste of time. Even worse is that prisons are "colleges of crime" where inmates learn about how to be do crimes and worst of all, become exposed to drug taking. I wouldn't advocate having chain gangs as in the USA but some strategy for getting them into say manual work under supervision might be useful - especially if it came with a modest wag. This would be significantly cheaper than the £51,100 it costs per year for  keeping one in jail.
