Was this it? Though not sure the information is still relevant http://datacollator.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/primary-schools-around-east-dulwich.html

Maybe here: http://www.thebotanistonsloanesquare.com Right by Cadogan Hall. I enjoy going with my dad before a concert at The Albert Hall (I am a bit older than 7 though). Pre-theatre menu might suit your needs?

Thank you. Sounds like I'm not too far off with my understanding. So, next question...are there educational benefits to sending your preschooler to a nursery attached to a primary school rather than sending them to (or keeping them in) a private nursery?

Hello - really hoping someone can help me understand local state nurseries. I'm a way off but would like to get my head around how it all works. I'm assuming there's less of a catchment issue than at the same school for a reception start? But is there any guarantee that your child would have a place at that school if you sent them to the nursery. If, for instance, I sent my son to Heber nursery, might I then find he didn't get a place there for reception onwards and would have to go to whichever school he did get a place at. Is my understand pretty much correct or am I totally misunderstanding the system. Thanks

Is it on this week (half term)? Thanks

I've spent this week doing lots of nanny research (as in trying to find one). They seem to charge ?8-?12 an hour (which as their employer you will need to pay Employers NI on). There seem to be lots of nannies out there willing to work part time/mornings/afternoons/odd days. You will definitely be able to find one for three days. Try posting an ad on the EDF and also childcare.co.uk. Hope that helps, good luck

Jumping on the back of missmack's post, we're also looking to do a loft conversion and were hoping to be able to snoop round some locally (we're SE22) and get some recommendations for architects. Can anyone help with suggestions? And/or be willing to allow us to traipse through their house. Many thanks in advance, Anna

Whoops - sorry. Monday x

We're planning another meet-up. 7.30 at the Clockhouse for anyone interested. I'll book it over the weekend, so let me know asap if you're in. Anna x

There's one at Push studios on a saturday morning. http://pushstudios.co.uk/en/2014-timetable/ Saturday mornings. I have't been to the pre-natal pilates but have done several pilates classes here and would highly recommend. Good luck

If anyone's around on Sunday, a few of us are meeting at 2pm at le chandelier (and hoping to find an outside table). Anna x

I'm happy with dinner or just drinks. Roca sounds great. I can do Wednesday 23rd (not the Tuesday). Thanks for the phone numbers, will sort whatsapp group now... Anna x

Hello all, Really enjoyed this morning/afternoon. Definitely up for meeting up soon. One evening in the next couple of weeks or the weekend of 26/27th?? As I mentioned, I'd be happy to get a whatsapp group together - might be an easier way to stay in touch. If you're interested, message me your number and I'll sort it. Obviously we'll still use EDF as well. Anna x

Fantastic, thank you for sorting. See you then. Anna

Hello, See you there Anna

Great. Count me in too - not strictly a June, July, August baby - but end of May so could well be in the gang! Anna

Hi, I'm free this Sunday and most Sundays in March (not 23rd). Looking forward to meeting up whenever people are free. Anna

Hi, I'm in in for Clockhouse on Sunday - see you then Anna

I'm here! Anna

Hi, I wasn't able to book a table, but shall we meet at 3 at the Chandelier? There aren't too many of us - I'm sure they'll have a table. See you then, Anna

Are we happy to say 3pm on Sunday at le chandelier? I'll book a table when I know how many we've got coming. The last meeting was just mums and mums-to-be, which I thought worked well. Can we keep it at just us? Anna

Hello Summer mums, Do we fancy a meet-up this Sunday? My parents are staying this weekend, but I am confident (in the nicest possible sense) that they will be on the road by lunchtime. Can people make an early afternoon meet? 2.30/3? Anna

Hi Laura, Fantastic. Keep an eye on the board - I think we'll be arranging a meet for the last weekend in Jan. Anna

Brilliant. Thank you. Looking forward to meeting people then.

Great. We can say 10.30 (I may be a little late). Good idea re booking the table Yellow. Looking forward to seeing you there. Anna
