Hi, i wondered if anyone has been to the St Faith's playgroup on a Monday at 10-12 in the morning? I saw it on the Edtots website and it says it is for 0-5 years. I have a 3 year old and almost 1 year old. Is it suitable for both? Or is it more for babies with little toys on mats? I have been to Cheeky C's once and they both liked that. Is it similar at all?


Thanks

Hi - I go regularly. Its ?2 a session and very much lively toddler focused i.e. a hall with lots of tables with toys for 2+, a small slide, some prams and dollys for toddlers to play with. There is a small corner with more baby focused things but its definitely better for toddlers than babies.


There are often mums/dads there with toddlers and small babies in arms/on knees. I would definitely recommend a visit but more for your older child than the 1 year old...though there would be something for your 1 year old to do there you would just need to keep your eye on them as the older kids can race around a bit and knock the babies over onto the hard floor (my son is one of the guilty ones here!)

I think it's pretty relaxed - my two go with their childminder (the group is run by a small group of childminders). Mine are 3 and just 1 and there is plenty to keep them occupied, but yes, as per earlier poster, I think toddlers have the run of the place so an eye on littler ones is probably good. Can get a nice cuppa and biscuit too.

    • Hi everyone, we are trying to finslise our decision for enrolling our son for 3+ from September and currently considering Dulwich Prep or Herne Hill. We like both and appreciate there is no right or wrong answer but what we like about HH is great focus on early years and also being coed. However if we can avoid the 7+ stress then prefer to do that. Dulwich Prep is closer but the difference is not significant. we know children are very active and busy in DP and they have great facilities, but unlike HH, we don’t know much about their focus on personal development and emotional intelligence, etc! Also not sure about long-term impact of being in boys only school. Difficult decision for us and we appreciate feedback from parents if you can share please.    thank you
    • Yeah that was their old policy. Their new policy is to force you to have a water meter and if you refuse they put you on a punitively high tariff which effectively forces you to have one. I was doing well with my policy of polite resistance which was to say yes fine I'll have one fitted but then not actually book an appointment or cancel the appointments they made. But then I was persuaded that it would be much cheaper anyway. 
    • Lots of lovely lilac shrubs in flower at the moment. Would anyone consider giving me a cutting? It would involve digging out a basal off shoot, roots and all. I'd love one for my new garden but I'm so broke that I have to fill it with plants the slow way!
    • You are welcome to have mine for free. I was just about to post! Three panels - 6ft by 5ft - weathered/natural on one side and painted brown on the other.
