  1. Does anyone have the details for Heber Halloween trail? Please can you PM me if so, Thanks!
  2. If anyone sees a young black Male on or near Lordship lane or around East dulwich generally please can they call the police. He is a child despite looking like an adult at over 6 feet tall and reported missing. He has severe autism and is easily spotted as very over friendly and randomly touching and approaching people. Thanks everyone

  12. I got some lovely washable, cotton masks from someone based locally but found on Twitter @mugTM Great quality and only ?5 each
  13. In case anyone wants to track the overall rate of new cases and deaths, you'll find the data on worldometers.info
  14. My boys - now 9 and 5 - still absolutely love Nimble Arts holiday club- so much so my eldest barely says goodbye to me! (sniff sob)
  15. Summer reading challenge for all ages, from toddlers to older kids. Free goodie bags and rocket making activities.
  16. Petition now at 4.1 million- amazing! Good for you anyone marching today!!

Ah maybe I was thinking of a different courier company
  18. It?s reopened and looks amazing! Always been one of my favourites tho of course nothing beats China town
  19. Gymboree? Peckham Rye.. always good fun for little ones
  20. Not sure how well publicised this is so thought I?d share as it sounds great fun... Two shows 1pm and late afternoon https://www.magicmindreadingandmayhem.co.uk
  21. I?ve been reading about ecobricks- a new idea to reuse plastic as opposed to it going into the waste. This is essentially plastics like wrapping from fruit and veg, wrapping that keeps multipacks of bottles together etc. Does anyone know more in terms of how likely we might be to get a drop off point? I found this link on FB: https://www.ecobricks.org/
  22. ED picturehouse cinema party? I can also highly recommend Captured on the Rye parties :)
  23. Clair who runs Maths Mad is absolutely wonderful but I am unsure if she has availability. https://www.mathsmad.co.uk/1-to-1-maths-coaching I cannot recommend her more highly - she really brings fun and enthusiasm (lots of games and interaction to make the sessions fun) in order to get the best out of my 8 yr old son. Best of luck! p.s. mine tried and hated Kumon too but it was great in terms of getting into the discipline of a classroom situation and good behaviour / independence.
  24. I have a lovely friend who wants to train to become a teacher. Issue is she doesn't have a degree (now in her 40s and works as a TA). Does anyone have any advice they could offer in terms of a reasonably priced part-time degree course? Could be full-time if it worked out cheaper but my initial thinking is PT best as she can then continue working and that will help towards funding her further education. She has many years experience as a Teaching Assistant so hopefully that will count for something somewhere along the training route. I am also thinking a Crowdfunder could be in order! Thanks forumites :)
  25. Last week my youngest (4) started the club having "graduated" from his private nursery... He LOVES it - they do arts and crafts, magic, have a bouncy castle, loads of games, and one day (mini beasts theme) he even held a giant snail and cockroach (nice). My eldest has done magic, beat boxing, made a robot head, and held a bird of prey (yes really!!) so far this fortnight. WONDERFUL WITH A CAPITAL 'W' :) HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED plus your kids are looked after by staff who include teachers so they are in very safe hands...
