Curiously, the AVP Sports website doesn't say who the organisers are. The man who appears to run it (I think his first name is Mike) was very rude and patronising to my wife when she raised some concerns about the level of supervision in the swimming pool - I wonder if he has a problem talking to women. I did have a child who went to Scamps at the Dulwich Prep (which has terrific facilities) and he thoroughly enjoyed it, but dealing with Mike has been very unpleasant and we've decided not to send any of our children there.

Yes, another vote for Scamps. My son, who is generally not very enthusiastic at all about organised extra-curricular activities in any form, really believes that the main priority of the organisers is for all the children to have lots of fun. I've been delighted to find some childcare that he actually enjoys.

I was going to post about the fact that today (second day my 4 yo twins attended with their big brother) all 3 of them were miffed they had to leave at 4 and weren't booked in for the late session



And boy twin really isn't someone who has ever been keen on organised activities, my twins don't start reception till September


It is very well organised and calm quiet atmosphere I think

Like the idea if it being calm....or rather my eldest would. She tried the JAGS one but found it too full on - rugby really wasn't her thing! Will try Scamps next time around. Do they do things at half-term or is it summer only?


We tried JAGS, Artastic and Crafty Cooks this year and Crafty Cooks was definitely the favourite. Hannah was great with my youngest (only 4) and there were games I understand and crafty stuff, so not only cooking. Just a shame that the full week course (rather than short classes) wasn't closer to home.

We've done alternate weeks at Gumboots (Darrell Road 8-6pm) and Holiday Drop off at Dulwich College (extended day 8-5pm).


Number one daughter's loved it - mostly swimming and trampolining everyday (at HDO) with a bit of dodge ball. PLenty of 'boy' sports too but she preferred these.


Gumboots is lovely too. The minders are all really gentle and lots of fun had there too - bowling at E&C, Peckham Cinema etc.

Holiday Drop Off Sports Camp has added another week



The Dulwich College HDO Summer Camp is still available to book online


As Holiday Drop Off was inundated with requests to run another week, we have decided that we will now be continuing the camp until the 31st August 2012. Please note, that HDO will not be running on the 27th of August as this is a Bank Holiday.


As we are one of the few activity camps running until this later date, we would suggest booking early to avoid missing a place. HDO has hit record numbers this summer reaching out to hundreds of new faces, as well as welcoming back the camps more regular attendees. Week 7 is now bookable online


All dates are now bookable at www.holidaydropoff.com

Both of my daughters went to the HDO club in June. I was slightly anxious as they'd never been to a holiday club before, and they are quite shy girls. I don't know why I was anxious, they had the most amazing time and wanted to go every day thereafter! Their favourite activities were trampoling and the water ball/pool fun. The staff are very friendly and approachable. It was clear the children at the club adored them. We're all looking forward to spending many more fun days with the HDO team in the summer holidays. Many thanks for providing a high quality, fun club for our children

Parents Comments:



My two children, aged 9 and 4 absolutely love Holiday Drop-Off. They enjoy the variety of activities on offer and meeting other children. They feel safe and secure in a familiar environment and always ask to go back each holiday. The staff are warm, friendly and welcoming and my children are always delighted to see them again. I have no hesitation in recommending Holiday Drop-Off.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
