Re: Attempted mugging near Finton House

Might be Earnest Bevin uniform, Chestnut Grove wear dark green blazers. But given the first school is round the corner makes it more likely. Worth contacting the head teacher and sharing the video, if it's the EB uniform they will confirm. Probably get more out of the school than the police!!

Re: Dog attack on young children in Battersea Park

They should be on a lead and muzzled at all times, it's the owners fault and they should be penalised, the best way to do this is take the dog away from them, better than any fine.

Re: Therapy dog looking for those in need of positivity

Please consider Garratt Park school in Earlsfield, it's secondary specialist provision for those with mild to moderate learning difficulties. They also have an autism unit, I'm sure they would be happy to have a visit.

Re: Does your son at Emanuel, Ibstock or Graveney play video games?

My son loves video games, mainly Roblox and Roblox Studio where he's actually designing and coding for games. I used to get worried about it but he is autistic and it's his way of calming down after a long day at school. He's Yr9 and spends 4 hours in the week. More at the weekends but I insist he h...

Re: Northcote Road quiet?

Interesting discussion on the changing nature of the Northcote road. I grew up just off the Northcote road in the 70's and it was an eclectic mix of all manner of folks, from teachers, actors, first generation immigrants, nurses, bankers, artists, all sorts really. I'm sure all this changed with the...

Re: Why can't my children go to a Catholic school of the council fund them?

It would only be unfair if you were a Catholic or want some sort of religious content in your child's school day, It can be pretty full on, would you be happy with that?

Re: Mastif in Ole & Steen off lead

On the lead without a doubt, all dogs should be on leads in these establishments regardless of size. I don't think it's too much to ask. My Mum is allergic to dogs and finds cafes really hard these days, we tried three different cafes and they all had dogs in them! When she asked if they could be ta...

Re: Child with ASD - Honeywell, Belleville, Ravenstone, Beatrix Potter, Allfarthing or Swaffield?

Definitely not Beatrix Potter, reading the last post makes me sad, it seems like they haven't changed at all in ten years. Exclusions from activities were the norm here, it was such a painful journey as my other child had a wonderful time there...but of course they had no sen needs at all. Smallwood...
