Hi Dom


I am not aware of specific courses for toddlers between 12 months and 36 months. Usually more structured swimming lessons start from 3. But it is worth trying at Crystal Palace, and most certainly the Beckenham Spa (voted 'Best Public Pool in the UK' by The Independent newspaper) they have many different activities there! hope this helps,

Peckham pulse have classes on Tuesday and Thursday mornings for parents and children - 3 months to 3 years. After that they can start proper swimming lessons. ?63 for a 10 week course. Enrolement for the next course will be in a few weeks time I think.


It is worth checking Dulwich leisure centre too but the water there will be a lot colder!

I recommend Born to Swim. They take babies all the way through til they are 5. My two have been with born to swim since they were six months old and my 3.5 year old can now swim 12m front crawl! They are brilliant. Google them. Only pool south of the river is deptford - all other pools are North of the river.

    • But they were going to cut down a tree that had no notice on it ? Either way thank goodness people intervened. My total lack of confidence in Southwark tree dept is justified it would seem… 
    • Hopefully the confusion won’t lead to injury. 
    • To clarify a few points- I didn't just happen to be passing, I saw the workmen setting up equipment worryingly close to the tree from my front window, so put my shoes on and headed over there as quickly as possible just in case. Unfortunately they had already lopped a few branches off in the two minutes it took me to get there. Although I didn't see them attach a notice, the wording on the notice pictured above has the same terminology that they used with me - fungal brackets - so presumably it was them. I have no idea who removed the sign, or why. Also worth mentioning that they were third party contractors, carrying out work orders from the council. I'm a bit confused by the 'mistaken tree' comments, as Councillor Renata Hamvas posted on a Facebook thread that she had raised the issue with the relevant council officers, and that the response she received is that the tree does have a fungal infection. So there seems to be conflicting info there, and I'm concerned that the tree is still in danger.
    • To be fair, do we know who put the notice on the wrong tree? The people wielding chainsaws almost certainly won't be the experts  who identify  the problems with the trees? They just go along and hack down what they're told to hack down? I might be wrong, but whilst actual tree surgery needs expertise, I wouldn't have thought hacking down a whole tree did? Apart from knowing how to use a chainsaw, obviously.
