The dedicated and passionate teachers at Studio 74, have a wealth of experience in their fields, and are amongst the best in the country.

Your chance to win a copy of the DVD - The Christmas Bunny - A modern magical Christmas tale for the whole family! The Christmas Bunny is the heartwarming family story that follows Julia, a protected child of the state, as she is introduced to her new foster parents Patti and Scott and their son Billy, who will be caring for her over the Christmas holidays. Emotionally withdrawn, Julia lives in silence refusing to respond to her new family, or to others, and spends her time watching the movie ‘The Velveteen Rabbit’ for hours on end. When she discovers an injured rabbit in the woods on Christmas Eve Julia decides she wants to care for the wounded animal and nurse it back to health, with

the help of the bunny lady, Betsy Ross. Julia’s special relationship with the rabbit and Ms Ross opens her up to the world, and she finally gets the one thing in life she had always wished for.

The Christmas Bunny (cert. PG) is available to buy on DVD on 14th November, courtesy of Showbox Home Entertainment (amazon.co.uk)

5Local Information & Support

Chislehurst Mums The online notice board for Chislehurst Mums

“Chislehurst Mums” is a free and easy to use online notice board for mums (or dads or other carers of children) who are based in and around Chislehurst. The idea is simple: to put mums in touch with other mums who have something to share, offer or give away.

Messages can be posted on the board which either seek something (e.g. a Nanny share), or offer something (e.g. a pram). Users contact each other directly if interested. The site is run on the same principle as other online communities such as Freecycle.

“Chislehurst Mums” taps into the resurging interest in community initiatives. It’s run by users in the community and is self-organising. The site simply introduces people to each other. It’s then up to them to make their own arrangements including the obvious safety and quality checks.

There are several benefits of the site. Users will have access to a much bigger audience than they’d get by putting an ad in the post office window. Users can also save money by avoiding paying for expensive intermediaries such as nanny agencies. The site isn’t run for profit and so will be free from the clutter of commercial advertising. It’s a great way of meeting like minded people in your community.

The site is new, and success will depend on critical mass, so we hope lots of people will get using it soon! It’s simple and effective although you do need to sign up to a basic Yahoo! account to access the emails first time. From then on you can redirect all notices to your usual email address. “Chislehurst Mums” can be found at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/chislehurstmums/

Let’s Get Healthy with HENRY FREE 8-week courseThis course is to help parents of children aged 0-5 years to provide a healthy family lifestyle.

“Why choose an Independent Junior School?”Louise Simpson, Head, Bromley High School.

The difference an Independent Junior School makes to your child’s progress in the early years is immeasurable. Why? Because Independent Schools are just that, Independent, and Bromley High Junior School is very proud to be so. Of course we do focus on what is important (our girls learn the 3 Rs rigorously) and these skills should be at the core of the junior curriculum, but for parents, this needs to be a given. In those early years

of education, the foundations of a love of learning and the self-confidence to work independently and with others, is developed.

A host of clubs and activities, a nurturing environment and small class sizes (no more than 24) in which teachers can get to know pupils incredibly well, is the foundation stone to confidence in the girls’ own abilities and an environment in which children can learn to take risks, safe in the knowledge that this is how we learn and develop as individuals. An independent school education is just that; an education in life skills and we are proud that we prepare our girls to be confident, articulate and positive. They have an eager attitude to life, they grab opportunities with both hands and, at the same time, they have empathy for each other, take responsibility for their position in the wider school community and are remarkably mature as they start to prepare for senior school.

Making the decision to send your child to an Independent Junior School may not be an easy one, but it will be worth it. Your child will thrive in the stimulating, fun and interesting environment that is created and the teachers, unbounded by the National Curriculum, will make it a fun and exciting journey for all concerned.

Please contact the school via our website: www.bromleyhigh.gdst.net or email [email protected] or to arrange a visit.

Please register now for 4+, 7+, 11+ and 16+ entry 2012. Assessments 7+ w/c 21 November 2012; 4+ Saturday 7th January am and w/c 9th January; 11+ Saturday 21st January am, 16+ interview on application.

Jay Aston Theatre Arts is about to have its tenth anniversary at Old Church School, Hayes“We have had over 2000 students pass through the school now and several have gone on to perform professionally or are training as teachers,“ said Jay. “I am looking to recruit new students this term so we can celebrate the end of 2011 with a performance of Annie. “I have had several students join at five and stay until they are fifteen, so we must be doing something right!” Jay Aston is one of the original skirt-ripping members of pop group Bucks Fizz, who recently sold out the London Palladium to celebrate their 30th Anniversary. The day after, Cheryl Baker was runner-up in Pop Star to Opera Star. The school has performed Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, TheWizard of Oz in local theatres, Sadlers Wells, and also at Disneyland, Paris. If you are thinking of trying a theatre school with a difference or simply want your child to gain confidence and self-assurance, then please call Jay on 07968 381471.

All of the school’s teachers are highly experienced and trained professionals, and all staff are CRB checked.
