Congratulations to all of those allocated a place at this high achieving vibrant local school. We look forward to seeing you at the welcome meeting and thereafter in September. In the meantime if you wish to keep abreast of the goings on at the PTA you can do so by joining the mailing list; email your details to [email protected] or by PM via the forum.

There will be another open day on 1st May. There have been lots of changes in the last few months with the new kitchen in full swing, the breakfast club serving a range of hot food, extended after school club hours, a new gardening club, parent/teachers choir, refurbished annexe and gardens, beautiful mosaics all over the playground, new gates and signage and, of course, our appearance on BBC sports relief. You can keep in touch with our improvements and achievements via our website www.goosegreenprimaryschool.org which has all the past newsletters on it and much more.

A warm welcome to you all.

Our pleasure!

Do come along to the next open day I'm sure you will find it very reassuring and we always try to have PTA members on hand for a cuppa afterwards. There will probably be others whose children will be starting at the same time present for a visit or re visit.

Hope to meet you then

Yes, our PTA is really nice and welcoming - lots of ways to get involved in the school - from being involved in the PTA to helping students read to standing for parent-governor. I particularly enjoy the parent-staff choir and the weekly family gardening club (see our photos of the Big Dig event where we prepared beds for our vegetable and herb gardens and launched the family gardening club)


Anyway, I also wanted to point out the correct weblink to the school is actually http://www.goosegreenprimaryschool.org/ - it's so easy to make a mistake when typing in these links (I did that last time!). You'll find lots of useful information on the site.

Just updating this thread to extend the welcome to anyone fortunate enough to be allocated a place in the "shakedown" at this local school which is positively thriving academically and awash with fun and useful extra curricular activities for children and parents. Keep in touch with the life of the school and the PTA by looking at our website or joining our mailing list and we'll email you out a copy of our fortnightly PTA news (see details above)

Next open day 12th June.

    • Off the top of my head, there are notice boards in Sainsbury's and the library where small businesses can advertise, not to overlook the internet and forums such as this which these days is where very many go to first for small business information. I find it strange that you are mounting this crusade to allow small businesses the right to advertise in the Community noticeboards when there are so many alternatives these days. As I said before, the Community noticeboards are too small to accommodate commercial notices and would probably overwhelm and obscure the NFP notices.  
    • There was a very long thread following that first post I screenshotted (?) above, which I have just re-read. If anybody knows how I can link to it on this thread, please let me know. It's very interesting (but also pretty appalling).
    • I'm not in a bubble - if you read my post it says supportive of food bank info and community group info etc on the ED station board, where broad mix pass by when using train/bus/on foot. You're judging me but I can assure you I probably do FAR more for the local community than someone like you who simply posts something unhelpful in response to a conversation piece, asking for more opinions. Of course I know not everyone is middle class, I am working class worked up to middle class etc etc. I support various local groups, raise money for charity, give money to charity, give to foodbanks... the whole shebang. All I am saying is that there are ALSO other people who are interested in looking at the noticeboard for small business info around the area. Small businesses definitely need support and often make low profits and rely on advertising in places like these noticeboards. I'm entitled to an opinion and I am very honest, unlike some who want to say the right thing but if you question yourself what do YOU actually do for the good of others? Yes you may be Mother Teresa but my guess is... you aren't 😉 It is now fixed... 
    • I think there is possibly a “broken windows syndrome” to these kind of boards: you know the idea that a broken window left untouched will give the impression that nobody cares, so encourages more vandalism? If boards are not maintained and the notices are way out of date it gives off that vibe. North Cross Road is a Southwark council licensed market, so does it not have a council employee in charge of it? Someone who arranges pitches and payments etc. If so, surely they would be the person to take responsibility? It only needs somebody to keep it clean and charge the posters regularly. Perhaps this can be suggested to the Goose Green councillors; it’s not my ward.
