Hi - does anyone on this forum have a son at Dulwich Prep London and are you pleased with it? It seems quite formal in approach so I wonder if the boys actually have fun and enjoy themselves there? Any opinions greatly appreciated. When I was looking at the school a few years ago people i asked were very positive. Is this still the case? Many thanks!

Lucy

We have two lively boys at the Prep and we absolutely love it. Yes, they are quite structured in many ways but I'm glad to report it really isn't about stopping the boys from having fun!


My 6-year old is ultra sporty, whilst our 4-yr old is a lot gentler and more into creative things, and both are thriving in the Prep. The teachers are very in tune with individual boys' needs in my personal opinion.


They have Twitter accounts which are brilliant for getting a glimpse into what life is like at the Prep from a child's perspective, which you might be interested in taking a look.

      Lost Cat Henslowe & Underhill Road

      By jfern · Posted

      Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know

      That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring

      The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.

      Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
