Hi everyone


I'm totally new to the East Dulwich Forum and haven't posted on here before. I'm hoping to be able to make some new friends and find things to do with my 15 month old little girl from about 4pm until around 5.30pm any weekdays. I work until 3.30pm in Sydenham and pick up my daughter at 3.45pm. We spend the afternoons either playing at home or going to parks or meeting up with friends with babies of similar age. Unfortunately within the next few weeks several of our friends are either moving away or going back to full time work, leaving us with not much of a social life in the afternoons. :(


I can't seem to find any toddler groups around 4pm onwards, so wondered if anyone knows of anything going on in the area around this time of day for babies / toddlers? We'd also be really keen to make new friends in the area, so if anyone with children of a similar age would like to meet up let me know!

Hi Anna,


have you looked on the edtots website? It lists all activities and groups by weekday so you can see at a glance what's on every morning and every afternoon.

We've been enjoying soft play at The Herne on a weds - there's a morning and afternoon session, afternoon is 3-5:00 so that would still give you a chance to have an hour of play by the time you got there, and give tea afterwards if your daughter has tea about 5ish, a fee people tend to stay and do tea after. I think it's not on for the next couple of weeks due to the venue needing the space for other bookings, but Kim who runs it will post on the forum to keep people updated as to when it starts again - a couple of weeks time I believe.

Hi Anna,


It might be a bit out of your way but Bessemer Grange children's centre do a stay and play session most days from 3:00 to 5:00. It's free and they give the kids toast. It's quite a small space and gets a bit hectic on wet days but is really nice when it's not too busy.

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls. 
    • There used to be a better baker than Gail's on the same site immediately before Gail's pulled their financial muscle.
