Hi minikatsu has a place in Goose Green nursery in September, hooray. We didn't receive any info with our acceptance letter and I meant to call the office with some questions but embarrassingly have been too unorganised. And now the school is closed, oops.


So to any GG parents, do I have to buy a uniform for nursery? Or just a school jumper? And where can I get one, I assume the uniform shop on Grove Vale? And can he just wear his "normal" shoes? Any other tips greatly appreciated!

Nursery children need white shirt, aertex is fine, grey trousers or dress/skirt, girls can wear green gingham dresses in September if weather merits it. All you need is a logo jumper, available from school office (uniform shop on Grove Vale caters for the private schools and in my experience of trying to buy generic accessories they are very very snooty). Also a bookbag, also available from school office. Get them on first week back, no one will mind if there is a day or two without the jumper except your little one who will no doubt want to wear the same as everyone else.

Shoes should be black and sensible but they are relatively relaxed in nursery. I sent mine in plimsols at first; cheap hard wearing and retro!

Next term the school will have the parent pay facility which will allow us to order and pay for uniform online which will make life easier.

If you are totally desperate I can loan you a jumper for the first week, we have plenty!

Hi - my son has just finished at Goose Green nursery (it's fab by the way!) - as he is off to St John's in September I have a spare jumper going if you'd like it? (we had 2 but I donated one to the nursery as a spare) it's the smallest size so depending on whether your little one is big/small for their age it may or may not be ok - anyway it's yours if you'd like it - just send me a PM and we can arrange for you to pick it up.

    • And the latest shocker, Inflation this morning was 2.3% up from 1.7& the previous month, a 0.6% increase in a month, that is dreadful. So Robber Reeves plan is already working (NOT). Inflation has begun to increase and will continue to do so, I predict the next set of unemployment figures will show a rise. Neither of these things can be blamed on the last Govt, it's down to the inept budget and impact it is having already.
    • Andrews and Arnold are brilliant https://www.aa.net.uk/. If there's any problems someone picks up the phone on the 2nd or 3rd ring and several times they have rung me immediately after I sent an e-mail. As they are primarily B2B, their support is excellent and there are a lot fewer miscommunications with OpenReach. Go to their website and enter your postcode which will show you exactly what type of broadband is available in your area.
    • Because they have been awful - scoring own-goal after own-goal. You cannot be an apologist for their diabolical first 100 days on the basis that the previous lot were worse - in the same way the whole of the 14 years of Tory rule was tarred with the brush of despair about their very worst behaviour in the latter years Labour run the risk of their government being tarred with the same brush on the basis of their first 100 days. It has probably been some of the worst 100 days of any new government and Starmer's approval ratings aren't as low as they are without reason. You know they are in trouble when MPs start posting the good bits from their first 100 days - it's a sure sign they know they have a problem. And when this government have a problem the frontbenchers disappear from media interviews and they roll-out the likes of Pat McFadden to provide some air cover. Yesterday it was farmers. Today it is the pensioners being pushed into poverty by Winter Fuel payments. It's a perceptual disaster and has been since day 1 - they have to get a grip on it else this leadership team is doomed. You highlight the very problem here. Farmers are not being gifted money. They are being gifted assets. Assets that they don't realise as they continue to work those assets to provide food for the country. Most inheritance is cash or an asset (a house) that people sell to generate cash. Passing a farm to younger family members is very different. On the news they interviewed a farmer whose family had owned the farm since 1822 and he broke down in tears when he spoke about his 13 year old son who was working in the farm to continue it - no doubt in the realisation that his son would be hit by a tax bill when he took it over. Given farmers are not cash rich then the decision would likely be that they would need to sell some of the land that generations had worked hard to build to fund the tax bill - and so many farms are on a knife's edge that it might be enough to send them over the edge.   There are many valid reasons why the government are doing what they are doing but those reasons are not cutting through and they are losing control of the narrative. That is a massive issue for them.  
    • Another great job by Simmonds Plastering. This time he decorated the newly plastered living room and added a pantry cupboard in kitchen.  He is reliable and works really hard.  Highly recommend 07949 180 533
