I want to recommend Lou and his brilliant parties at Captured on the Rye. My 6-yr old had a party there for 12, and they all really enjoyed it. It was nice to do something creative, without lots of competitive games (which can stress out my son!) and everyone got something really nice to take away at the end - a party bag with a difference!


They basically designed their own T-shirts (with some cool templates for those that wanted them) and then Lou and Lola helped them screen print them - they all came out looking great, something tasteful that the kids will wear and enjoy. They also did some fab little spin paintings and at the end Lou fired up his candy floss machine.

Feel free to PM me if you want to ask me anything about it.

We had a party 2 years ago for the children at the shop and again this weekend but at home. We invited the whole class. Lou and his assistant took charge of all the kids and kept them entertained for over 3 hours with t shirt printing and spin painting. There were 25 tshirts made. The kids were boisterous and with a sugar high from all the candy floss but they were able to remain calm and made it a stress free party. They were also very good around our disabled child and took measures to ensure safety at all times. We would definitely recommend.

We just had my daughters 7th birthday party at captured in the rye. It is a really good alternative party. The girls were totally engrossed in the activity from drawing and cutting out to getting involved with the screen printing and shrieking with delight at their finished t shirts. The spin painting and candy floss also added another dimension of creative fun. Would recommend highly as a memorable birthday activity with a keep sake to go home with!

I can also recommend Captured on the Rye (Pellatt Road) spin painting parties. My teen and 7 friends had a fantastic time there recently, and they all left with a beautifully unique t-shirt or bag, as well as a sugar high from the monumental candy floss. Great value, and I can say from experience that the t-shirts last forever (we have two from 4 years ago which are much loved and still going strong!). It can be tricky to find something different for teens, and this absolutely hit the mark.

Aww. Thanks, Guanaja. It was a pleasure to have you and your family return. It makes me happy when I see tee shirts printed at our parties being proudly sported around and about in ED and beyond. There were no less than three being worn at the recent BBC Proms in Peckham!

Come again.

I definitely recommend Captured on the Rye for children's parties. We had my daughter's 8th birthday party at the weekend and it was fantastic. All the girls had a brilliant time and I'm still getting comments from the mums at school about how much they all loved it. Lou and Lola were fantastic at helping with the t-shirt designs and the finished product looks really impressive. The candy floss creations at the end were a definite highlight!

Another recommendation for Lou and Captured on the Rye! We had a lovely time there for my daughter's birthday party (a group of 4-6 year olds). The kids loved seeing their designs being printed on the T-shirts, and they really enjoyed the spin painting too. I'd also add that it's a really reasonably priced, hassle-free party (venue, entertainment, and party bags all sorted). You just need to turn up with a cake!

      Dog Kennel Hill School to change name

      By Vik · Posted

      From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!

      if I think of Corbyn dealing with a global pandemic (a lot of his supporters and some of his family come from the woo end of the spectrum - his brother is a proper anti-vax nut), then the  invasion of Ukraine (Corbyn long record of not exactly condemning Putin even as he killed people on British soil and many other matters, I  really do shudder

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      By Angelina · Posted

      If no one else has a problem, then it sugggests that the delivery person may not be aware of any harm and would respond well to a conversation. It also goes without saying that just because no one else has a problem, that the OP is not valid in raising their issues.
