Renata Hamvas Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 There have been rumours surfacing again that the One O Clock Club is about to close. I was unaware of any changes to what was said at the meeting in December, and I have posted on one of the threads that I would check the current situation and then post an update on here. As I thought, there is no change to the situation. The message sent to me by Cllr Catherine McDonald on this matter is pasted below:- rumours of the One O'Clock Club's threatened closure are entirely untrue- we're committed to continuing stay and play at lunchtimes in Peckham Rye- we are still taking forward proposals for Ivydale Children's Centre to take over the running of the lunchtime stay and play in the current site of the One O'Clock Club. Those discussions have not yet concluded.- we have allocated funding for a replacement building for this service nearby in the park; in the meantime services will continue to run out of the existing building- there is no change in the situation since the December meeting at the One O'Clock ClubThe club may close temporarily in April for the rebuild (the money was allocated from capital funds in last year's budget), however the timing for this has not been set.Renata Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/21803-peckham-rye-1-oclock-club-not-closing-down/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curmudgeon Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 that's good to hear Renatato be honest I'm sick of the closing - not-closing One 'O'Clock club conversations it's been going on reguarly for at least 10 years (to my knowledge) I now have threat-of-closure-fatigue ;-) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/21803-peckham-rye-1-oclock-club-not-closing-down/#findComment-520002 Share on other sites More sharing options...
aceface Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Hi Renata, that is fabulous news, a relief to us all! However I do feel the staff who run the 1 O'Clock Club could be kept up to date and better informed as it was one of them that told me of the closure threat last week. Please can you keep us posted regarding the progress and how long the club will be temporary closed whilst the rebuild happens. Curmudgeon re "as for to be honest I'm sick of the closing - not-closing One 'O'Clock club conversations" - so sorry to bore you, just ignore the thread if you feel that way!
