Someone needs to take charge and set up a Group and send invites. So as I suspect everyone is being too polite I will.

Pm me your Cluster names!

242Mummy · 02/03/2019 10:27

I've had a look at how to set up a group - need a name, email or phone number to invite others. Suggest that one person be in charge - who is most trustworthy? The rest of us could send you the info?

242Mummy · 02/03/2019 10:28

Ah cross posted! Well done OKBobble!

bpisok · 02/03/2019 10:33

Well volunteered OKBobble!!!

Does it make sense that we also send you the name of our DCs school- that way you can give us a heads up if (in the very unlikely case) there's more than one Dc at the same school?

OKBobble · 02/03/2019 10:35

Sounds like a good idea bpisok.

242Mummy I have sent an invite.

bpisok · 02/03/2019 10:38

Mine sent too.
See you all on the other side!

242Mummy · 02/03/2019 10:47

I'm in, I'm in!! Didn't realise thst I needed to verify my email in cluster first.

OKBobble · 02/03/2019 11:01

Did you have the invite or use the link I sent 242?

If people haven't verified maybe that is why there is an issue with the invitations . I have sent a link to those who pmd and a couple of other regulars but just ro confuse matters using my previous user name!

Hopefully once we get used to the app it will all be easier. No same schools as yet!

OKBobble · 02/03/2019 11:03

Also the group name there can be amended once we decide what we would like to be.

whistl · 02/03/2019 11:31

@Bluebelle123 aren't you coming too?
I did a roll call but it wasn't comprehensive.

OKBobble · 02/03/2019 12:08

So I have now sent PM's to those on Whistl's list but please do pm school names prior to joining up.

EllenJanesthickerknickers · 02/03/2019 12:36

Oratory1 · 02/03/2019 12:37

EllenJanesthickerknickers · 02/03/2019 12:40

Anyone who wants to join that we’ve missed, I suggest they PM OKBobble. With your MN credentials! Wink

EllenJanesthickerknickers · 02/03/2019 12:40

Hope you’re feeling better tomorrow Oratory.

TheFirstOHN · 02/03/2019 13:07

I'm quite relieved to have confirmation that so many of you are real people.

Oratory1 · 02/03/2019 13:15

Sorry that should have said tied up as in busy 😂

Need to stop dashing off quick messages

eaglefly · 02/03/2019 13:29

@OKBobble have sent you PM. Don't think I had received anything. If still ok to join and as long as no school clash would love to join.

Stickerrocks · 02/03/2019 14:25

Elizabeth mine wants to go down the politics route as well. She went to a masterclass at Cambridge recently, which really made her believe she could raise her aspirations. There is another one on 5 April (Google Cambridge year 12 master class) which she can't go to.

DD has sent off for a big pile of prospectuses and we have a list of open days. Check the school's policy on how many days they can take off. There are also regional UCAS fairs being held over the next couple of months.

EllenJanesthickerknickers · 02/03/2019 15:03

I read it as very tired, Oratory, Grin

Oratory1 · 02/03/2019 17:27

well that too !!

ElizabethinherGermanGarden · 02/03/2019 17:53

Stickerrocks Thank you so much for the recommendation, checked it out, forwarded it and the upshot is that we are going to the history masterclass next weekend. She's really excited and it doesn't feel as if I've overstepped the mark at all 😊

I'm on this! Honestly, this is really important to me and you and OKbobble have already helped such a lot. Thanks

OKBobble · 02/03/2019 18:10

My DS is going to the History one next Saturday too. Grin

Will her dad or will you attend the parents session they mention? I will be!

OKBobble · 02/03/2019 18:12

Anyone who has been using prior years' hard copy uni prospectuses ( I am old school and like a document to hold) most unis now have their 2020 Prospectuses available to order from their websites now we have hit March.
