It’s been a wonderful hot
summer in Streatham. We
enjoyed the South London
Comedy Festival at
Streatham Space Project,
Rookfest at the Rookery,
and Kisstory on the Common
seemed to be well-organised
this year. Festival season
continues with the Streatham
Free Film Festival this
month, and you can plan your
movies using the official guide
in our centre spread.
Scruff’s Fun Dog Show on
Streatham Common by the
Rookery Café also takes place
this month. It’s a fantastic
event run by the volunteers
of the Friends of Streatham
Common. This year there’s
a fancy-dress horror movie
theme! There are street
parties at the Ferrer’s Triangle,
Lewin Rd, and Valley Rd, and
the Little Big Peace Festival
returns with some relaxing free
events to enjoy and the annual
Peace Walk down the High Rd.
Streatham Festival is up next
in October. Save the date for
the Streatham Strut on 12
October- an epic free live gig
trail from lunchtime to closing
time in 10 venues over 10
hours. Book your tickets for the
Festival Ceilidh on Saturday
19th October now – it was sold
out with a waiting list last year!
Look out for the full festival
programme as it develops at

In July the Food Standards Agency published results of their survey Food and You showing the food
hygiene rating scheme (FHRS) is being used by consumers more than ever before to assess food hygiene
standards. Use http://ratings.food.gov.uk/ and find out whether a restaurant, pub, takeaway, or food shop
has high standards of food hygiene and safety.
Lambeth Council has carried out new inspections since we last checked the ratings for local cafes, bars,
and restaurants. We are pleased to say that most Streatham food businesses are rated level 3 (hygiene
standards are generally satisfactory) or better.
Here are those that achieved the highest score, 5 (Very good) in inspections since September last year.
Not all establishments that are currently rated 5 are included because they may have not been inspected
in the period or have opened recently. The Earl Ferrers, for example, has a 5 rating from its last inspection
in 2017.

With the streatham Film
Festival taking place this
month, we celebrate a
streatham resident who rode
to hollywood stardom.
Ida Lupino was blessed with
great beauty and considerable
talent. she was born on 4
February 1918 at 33 ardbeg
road in herne hill into the
Lupino family, whose theatrical
traditions dated back to the
17th century. King edward
VII had once dubbed them
“the royal family of greasepaint
her father, stanley, appeared
in pantomime and had a
successful stage partnership
with Laddie Cliffe, and in the
1930s he appeared in 14
films, many of which he wrote
himself. at the height of his
success he and his family
moved to streatham and lived
at Holmdene, 152 Leigham
Court road. The house was
one of the largest in the area
and provided a luxurious
and comfortable home for
stanley, his wife Connie and
two daughters rita and Ida. It
was destroyed by the V1 bomb
that fell on 150 Leigham Court
road in august 1944.
at the rear of the house
there was an enormous
garden where the family
relaxed, played croquet, and
built a small theatre to give
performances to friends and
relatives. here Ida learnt to
sing and dance. Ida was a
pupil at st helena’s school in
streatham and aged 13, she
entered raDa where she was
cast in Heartbreak House. In
1933, Ida was cast in her first
film role in Her First Affair.
Five other films followed,
and she was contracted by
paramount and sailed to
the Us. There, her hair was
cropped and dyed blonde
and she became a hollywood
beauty. Her first US film was in

history continued
1934, Search for Beauty.
Folowing a bout of polio which almost ended
her career, Ida made 11 more films with
Paramount before joining Warner. There
she became established, starring in major
films; Light That Failed with Ronald Colman,
They Drive by Night with George Raft and
Humphrey Bogart, The Sea Wolf with Edward
G Robinson and John Garfield and Ladies
in Retirement. In 1941 she starred with
Humphrey Bogart in High Sierra, and in 1942
she won the New York Film Critics Award for
her role in The Hard Way.
In 1949 Ida Lupino co-founded a production
company, co-producing and directing Not
Wanted. She became a highly regarded
and successful TV director, directing episodes
of programmes including The Fugitive, The
Untouchables, The Virginian and Colombo.
Ida Lupino died in Los Angeles on 3 August
1995.

NorthWood Senior School
Northwood Schools are opening a new
independent senior school in September next
year at 3, Garrad’s Rd. Streatham. NorthWood
Senior will be a co-educational school for pupils
aged 13 to 16. Northwood Schools, which owns
Broomwood Hall and Northcote Lodge pre-prep
and preparatory schools have appointed Susan
Brooks, currently Deputy Head (Academic) at
Broomwood Hall, Head-designate of the new
school.
Susan Brooks graduated from Queensland
University in 2003 and came to the UK in 2007
to teach at Bromford’s School, Wickford, in
Essex before taking up the position of Head of
History at Broomwood Hall in 2008. She was
promoted to Senior Mistress and Director of
Studies before taking on her role as Northwood
Schools Deputy Head (Academic) in 2014.
Broomwood Hall was founded by Katherine
Colquhoun at Broomwood Rd. Methodist
Church SW11 in 1984 with a class of twelve
pupils. Broomwood Hall and Northcote Lodge
now accommodate almost 1,000 children and
are among London’s foremost independent
preparatory schools. Pupils regularly win
places at top schools including Dulwich College,
Emanuel School, Whitgift School, and James
Allen’s Girls’ School.
NorthWood Senior aims to meet demand for
a local day school that addresses the chronic
shortage of secondary places in south London.
It will offer a wide range of subjects, sports and
activities allowing the students to take a varied
range of GCSEs and iGCSEs across the arts,
languages, STEM subjects, humanities, music
and sport. The group places a strong focus on
pastoral care and there will be an equally strong
focus on life skills.

as the new season gets underway,
the new Coach, adam Carr, has had
to mastermind a busy summer of
transfers as streatham redhawks
compete in the new-look national
Ice hockey League south 1. They
are back in familiar company with old
rivals Chelmsford Chieftains, oxford
City stars, slough Jets and Invicta
Dynamos after another league restructure
restored the old english premier League to the
UK hockey hierarchy, albeit under a new name
of the national League.
Last year’s league opponents peterborough,
swindon, Basingstoke, raiders IhC and
Bracknell have stepped back up to the new-look
second tier to compete with northern rivals
Hull, Sheffield, Milton Keynes, Telford and newly
formed Leeds Chiefs. Their departure from nIhL
south leaves streatham as one of the bigger
clubs in their league. expectations are high that
they’re positioned to end a long trophy drought.
“I wanted to put together a team that can win
every trophy we play for, and I believe we have
done that” said coach Carr, who is in his
first coaching role following the departure of
Jeremy Cornish this summer. “I think we have
a great mix of what we need to win silverware
with speed, skill, toughness and real good
characters...”
streatham have brought in former GB junior
internationals, Vanya antonov and ryan Watt,
plus tough forwards, Ben paynter, Brandon miles
and Danny Ingoldsby among eight new arrivals.
In a further boost to ice hockey in sW16, the
streatham under 15s were crowned national
Champions after a 4-2 win over nottingham at
the Bauer Arena in Sheffield. The title is the first
national championship win in over 30 years for
streatham juniors, and well deserved. The junior
club has also added a development team in
nIhL 2 named the hawks, who are set to offer a
bridge between the u18 team and the first steps
into senior hockey for young players.
streatham face Bracknell hornets in a
Challenge game on sunday 8th september
at streatham Ice arena, before starting their
league campaign on sunday 15thseptember at
home to slough Jets.
The home game to Invicta Dynamos
on 28 September is our first
KIDS For A QuID
game of the season, only valid
with a copy of this magazine.
