Hi, Can anyone recommend a summer camp that runs until 5pm or later and that are on during the first week of the holidays, some of them don't start until the end of July or August and others just go until 3 or 4pm. Thank you

Great!, Thank you for the information.

Thank you, I did try to register there for the swimmig lessons, but they never got back to me, he was put on the waiting list ages ago

Does anyone know the name and contact details of the summer camp that runs in Alleyn schol, also the cost and time. I used to have their details, but can't find them anymore. Thank you

My child attends swimming lessons at Crystal Palace sports center, I am very happy with the quality of teaching, however I have noticed he does get sick a bit more often, I think is due to the chlorine. I want to change him to a UV treated swimming pool. Does anyone know which swimming pools in Dulwich are UV treated and that provide good quality swimming lessons. Thank you

Holiday Clubs: Scamps at Dulwich Prep Gumboots in East Dulwich Community Center Crystal Palace Sport Center Jags There is also a summer camp in Alleyn school Whippersnappers has a holiday club

Great!. Thank you all. Will try the photo shop next to the Soup Dragon, as it is closer

Hi, Is there anywhere in Dulwich to get acceptable UK passports photos for a 5 year old passport renovation. thank you

Thank You Renata and everyone for the information. I know now how the system work and I can plan around it, travelling before year 2 finishes and come back a couple of weeks after they start year 3 seems like the best option, just 10 weeks, so it won't be that disruptive. My son is in state education and we will be back to live in the same place.

Great! Thank you, we've better do some teaching while we are away then.

Sorry, I realized my post was not very clear/specific: My child attends Reception at an infant school at the moment, which just goes until year 2, we will go away when he finishes year two, we wouldn't apply for the junior school for that year, but the following year, when we will be back. We don't need the school to hold a place for us, as it will be a different school. As we are going to be travelling when we go away, my child won't attend school nor will he be home schooled, so he will have to start where he left. He will be just one year older than his peers. He started Reception being 4 years and 4 months old. I believe that is possible? Hope that is better Thanks a lot for the information

Hi, We are planning to go away for part of the school year, from 3 to 6 months; can my child miss that school year? When we come back, the children will still be at school, can I keep my child at home for the rest of that year until the new school year start? Do I need a special permission? I assume we need to apply again for when we come back and he will be a bit older than his classmates, but we don?t mind that. Thank you

Hi, Does anyone know where is the nearest girl guiding rainbow unit to East Dulwich, how much does it cost, when and what time do they meet. Thank you

Yes, the furthest distance offered in the first round and probably how far they went last year to offer a place. I will email the school, if I can't get this information through the forum Thank you

Does anyone know which was the furthest distance for a place offered at the Dulwich Hamlet junior school this year and last one? Thank you,

It was the same with my oldest daughter, she was very determined to dress herself from a very early age. What a nightmare! 20 months seems to be the peak for tantrums, distraction and give her a choice seemed to work sometimes; otherwise just relax and wait until they get over that stage. The positive side is that She is now a very independant girl and very helpful, which helps a lot now that we have a second one (who will be 20 months soon. Awrrrrrrrrrr!.

Thanks Fuschia, maybe they just call it different name. I am going on the search for cooking white chocolate
