August day camp ideas in Herne Hill/ North & West Dulwich

[dewells9]

Our family is relocating to Herne Hill from the US in early August, and we're looking for some fun day camps for our 5-year-old son in August. He did one day of Nimble Arts camp in April but it seemed a bit chaotic; something with a bit more structure would be better if possible. He likes science, but we'd also like him to get outdoors and have the opportunity to be active. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

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)
