  8. We'd love to welcome you back to Nimble Arts and are open 24th July - 18th August- sorry to hear it wasn't what you hoped for last time, this is not something we've heard before. When children arrive with us in the morning they have free run of our activity hall (or little 4/5's have their own activity space) and our assistants support the children in choosing their own activities. However from 10.00 they start revolving round 4 workshops in their age groups - these are structured and tailored to each age range and explore the theme of each day holistically. Then they're back in their activity space between 4.15 - 5.00 for pick up. Parents have fed back that children really enjoy the free choice in the morning/afternoon and breaks but also like to work on their own creations and take part in workshops with their peers. We have loads on offer this summer so do have a look at www.nimblearts.co.uk. We'd also be really happy to talk through your feedback in person as it's great for us as we develop to hear what parents and children would like to see more off - drop us an email at [email protected] if you're happy to share this with us. Thanks! Catherine (Nimble Arts Director)
  9. We're sorry not to be at our usual East Dulwich home at Heber this summer but as they're having building work we've popped up the hill to Horniman Primary. We will be back at Heber from October though so will see anyone who can't make it then!
  10. Hi all! To all those who have used us before or who need unique creative childcare over the summer we are delighted to announce that, due to our usual venue (where we will be returning in October!) having building work, Nimble Arts will be spending the summer up the hill at Horniman Primary. And before telling you what's in store we wanted to say a massive thank you to all the parents who helped us find a summer venue - we really appreciated your lobbying skills! We'll be offering 8am - 6pm childcare for 4 - 11's where every day is a new creative adventure working with industry professionals and our highly experienced pastoral staff. And thanks to the ingenious people at wwww.magicbooking.com we are about to launch a much more user-friendly booking system where you can manage your booking online, pay via credit or debit card, standing order, childcare vouchers and split your payments into manageable instalments. We have also simplified our pricing structure to offer a Super-earlybird booking period (?42 a day) then an Earlybird booking period (?45 a day) then full price for the final few weeks before the club (?47 a day) with a additional ?5 for our late pick-up movie and games club till 6pm (all prices are excluding VAT).

All booking and payment can be made through our online form at www.nimbleart.co.uk or email [email protected]
  12. To celebrate the start of the festive season (although let's face it, it pretty much starts three minutes after the end of the summer holidays these days!) we're offering a ?10 discount voucher for each of our fun-packed 2017 Creative Holiday Clubs in February Half-term, Easter Holidays and Spring Half-term next year! But the voucher is only valid till 31st December so if you want to take advantage of this offer visit www.nimblearts.co.uk before the end of the year and use code 'superbird123' when prompted on the booking form! As always, we offer Ofsted-registered 8am - 6pm childcare for 4 -11 year olds with DBS-checked highly experienced staff, workshops run by professionals across all artistic and creative technology fields; small groups working with others their age; activity rooms including dressing up, games and toys, arts and crafts, scrap modelling, chill out inflatable zone and our giant bouncy castle! Our ratios are at a minimum 1:10 for 4-8's and 1:15 for 8+ but in reality our 4-5's are supported by our Early Year's Manager and three assistants all day as well as workshop leaders and our Day Manager, and our older groups have a dedicated assistant who looks after them all day in workshops and are supported by our Manager and Assistant Manager when together in between sessions...so children have a whole range of adults to support them and keep an eye on any individual needs. We offer multiple day and sibling discounts so the more you book, the cheaper it gets! We had to register for VAT this year (although lots of childcare is VAT-exempt unfortunately day care activity clubs are not classed as VAT free!) and so we have added a price calculator to our website so you can see the full price of your booking before going ahead. We are trying our best to absorb as much of this VAT as possible by offering booking discounts and hope that what we offer in terms of unique holiday club adventures, workshop, visitors, opening times and ratios still feels like value for money. We pride ourselves on being no ordinary activity club and are so grateful for the hugely positive feedback we've received from parents and carers this year. We welcome children with any additional needs with open arms and want them to enjoy every minute so let us know if you have a child who may need 1:1 support, access requirements or any special help. And remember, Fridays are much quieter days for us where our drama leaders take children on an immersive adventure through time and space...so these are always a good day for your first introduction to Nimble Arts. Then again, you wouldn't want to miss out on magic, illusion, woodland creatures, knight and spy training, virtual reality, animation, film-making, creating a carnival, working at a toy factory, joining the newsdesk at The Nimble Times...to name but a few! If you have any questions you can email us at [email protected] and we can arrange a time to talk, or visit www.nimblearts.co.uk where you'll find our online booking forms, Scrapbook, FAQs, policies and more information about what's happening each day. We're really looking forward to seeing old friends and welcoming new faces! The Nimble Arts Ltd Team x
  13. UPDATE: Alas due to changes in term dates at Heber we are having to cancel our Mini-Winter Club from 21st - 23rd December. We're really sorry for the inconvenience but October is fully open for booking for 24th - 28th October and we'll be back for February half-term 2017 after that! Sorry for the inconvenience.

  19. Nimble Arts offers unique creative childcare every holiday at Heber School, Heber Road, East Dulwich SE22 9LA for 4-11 year olds. Childcare is available from 8.00am ? 5.00pm (or 6.00pm for a small additional fee) for 5 ? 11 year olds and 9.00am ? 1.00pm or 1.00pm ? 5.00pm for 4 year olds and can be paid for flexibly via credit or debit card, Paypal or childcare vouchers. Workshops for 5-11 year olds run from 9.30am - 4.30pm so children can be dropped off any time between 8.00am - 9.30pm and be picked up any time between 4.30 - 6.00pm. We run in every school holiday (excluding bank holidays) and for four weeks throughout the summer holidays. Our arts-based adventures give young people the chance to widen their experience in music, drama, film making, animation, dance, arts and crafts, circus and magic skills and storytelling while learning new skills and, most importantly, having fun! Courses focus on the importance of the creative process and the imagination and are a great way for children to grow in confidence, make new friends and discover where their creative talents and interests lie. We work with a ratio of 1:8 with children under 8 and 1:10 with our 8-11s and accept childcare vouchers via our Ofsted Registration. Every day children take part in up to four workshops in age groups with professional DBS-checked workshop staff and our team of highly experienced assistants and managers. From going on a Viking Voyage, managing a Toy Factory, running the Nimble TV Studio, creating an Artist's Sketchbook, exploring a Dessert Island or joining Sleuth School, every day is an adventure into the imagination! In between workshops our 4-5 year olds ('The Chipmunks!') have their own activity room where they are free to choose to dress up, work at the arts and craft table, play games, read or take part in organised group activities, and the same goes for our 6-11 year olds ('Zebras', 'Tigers' and 'Lions') who have a whole hall-full of activities to choose from! And we also allow lots of time for outdoor play. Children need to bring a packed lunch for the day and we provide a special 5-6pm extended film club (with healthy popcorn!) for all those who need to be picked up a little later. At the end of every club we put together an online scrapbook of the fabulous work children create and always make sure children have made something to take home as a momento of their day. We offer multiple day and sibling discounts so the more days you book, the cheaper your childcare becomes! 1 day: ?45 (?39 siblings) full day, ?29 (?25 siblings) half day 2 days: ?88 (?76) full days, ?56 (?48) half days 3 days: ?129 (?111) full days, ?81 (?69) half days 4 days: ?168 (?144) full days, ?104 (?88) half days 5 days: ?205 (?175) full days, ?125 (?105) half days If booking more than five days, prices for subsequent days work out as ?40 per day (?34 for siblings) or ?24 (?20 siblings) for half days. We offer spaces and 1:1 support where possible for children with any special educational and additional needs and are very happy to discuss the needs of your child in detail. **Our next course runs from 15th - 19th Feb - booking well in advance is recommended as courses tend to sell out at least two weeks before opening** To book your place online visit www.nimblearts.co.uk or email [email protected] if you have any further questions.
