Treasure Hunt in Peckham Park 26th April
There's a treasure hunt taking place Peckham Park on 26th April in aid of Cool Earth, a charity aimed at saving rainforests in Africa and South America.
Meet outside Cafe On The Rye, SE15 3UA at 2pm and look out for the green Cool Earth T-shirts. The cost is £2 per person and the hunt is mostly designed for older children as some of the clues are a little tricky. For more information email ulaanonyourfeet@gmail.com

New Haberdashers' secondary school for East Dulwich?
There has been a lot of work behind the scenes to try to provide another co-ed secondary school in East Dulwich on the site of the old Dulwich Hospital. This would take huge pressure off SE23 families hoping for places in co-ed schools such as Kingsdale or Charter - both so oversubscribed you have more chance of winning the lottery!
Well, now there's good news. This from James Barber Lib Dem Councillor for East Dulwich...

Ivydale School to expand
Ivydale School in Nunhead is going to become a 4-form entry school from 2016. This should help some of the parents living on the Lewisham/Southwark border of SE23.
This from Renata Hamvas, Labour Coucillor for Peckham Rye Ward...
This afternoon Nunhead Ward Councillors, Fiona Colley and Sunil Chopra and Peckham Rye Councillors, Victoria Mills and I met with the Head of Ivydale, Helen Ingham and the Deputy Head, Judith Lambert. I'm delighted to confirm that Ivydale will be expanding onto the former Bredinghurst site on Stuart Road to form a four form entry primary, with the first four forms of entry being in 2016. The architects who will design the new buildings for the Stuart Road site are due to be appointed shortly. There will shortly follow consultation with the school, families and local community as we move into the next stage of the expansion process.

A children's bookshop for Honor Oak Park?
I've heard an exciting rumour that what was once the picture framers in Honor Oak Park is being earmarked as a children's bookshop that would also deliver activities for children and parents. Possibly a bit like the lovely Tales On Moon Lane in Herne Hill. Please let us know your thoughts...
