Weald of Kent from East Sussex

Post by eastsussexmumsy »

Our daughter is going to Weald of Kent in September and we live in East Sussex - just over the border from Kent. Is there anyone else going from this area. Hope we are not the only one!

Not Weald of Kent, but our DD will be going to TGS from East Sussex in September - will your DD be getting the train, if so, which station?

At the moment she only knows one girl who will be going to TGS but she will be getting the bus and unlikely to be in the same learning community.

Purple Dog, my DD is going to TGS and she will be catching the train from Etchingham. If that is the same as your daughter, we could perhaps get them together.

Initially we would drive her there as we live in Crowborough and the back roads to the school is a 25/30 minute drive. We could then put her on the bus from Langton Green which goes straight to the school and back again. Train maybe a possibitlity for us either from T/Wells or Wadhurst (where our other daughter is at school) but its the walk up that massive hill, although I am sure there are lots of girls doing it.

My daughter is currently in Year 10 at TGS and she travels from East Sussex by train. Don't worry about the hill as there are loads of girls from WOK and TGS who do the walk from the station as many buses deposit there too. I've also seen girls from WOK travelling by train from Wadhurst when I have picked my daughter up from there instead so there may be more prospective girls that you are unaware of that do not follow this forum.

I'm sure your girls will find new friends that they can travel in with at the Year 6 day. For TGS, they teamed them up in their house groups which were geographically orientated but I'm not sure how this will work now with the learning communities.

Hi Purpledog and klmh1968 - my daughter also going to TGS in September, travelling from Stonegate. We don't know anyone either - would be great to meet up.
