Peckham Rye One O Clock club-October update


Recommended Posts

I think that the One O'Clock club could do with some sort of official relaunch - there seems to be a constant fug of confusion surrounding what used to be a very straightforward and fantastic service. Rumours abound about whether it's opening or closing down, if it is open what days, whether the steam is running uphill or not etc. I've pretty much given up as its been closed the days I've been down there and I know others who feel the same. So sad to see it fizzle out. Could there be a re-launch, re-establishing open afternoon of some sort effectively saying 'we are here'! Rant over

totally agree wth you kittysailing. i think a lot of people just aren't bothering anymore (including me) because it's not always open when it should be. A real shame because it's such a valuable resource, especially for parents with 2 or more little ones.

To update: Ivydale Children's Centre have taken over the One O clock club from the Council. The Club hasn't opened up again yet because the decision needs to be ratified by the Governors at Ivydale. They haven't yet had a Governors meeting when this could be done. They will be running stay and play (One o Clock club) and a variety of other activities in the club building. It will be open soon, but I don't have an exact date.


When I know more I will post again.

Yes, Maz and Fushia, I have an update.


The takeover of the one O clock club has been approved by Governors. Ivydale Children's Centre are currently restocking toys and equipment. They are also recruiting staff to run it. As they don't yet have the staff, it will be opening after the Half-term break on Tuesdays 10-12 and soon on Thursdays 1-3. Sessions will be gradually increased, by January they expect to be running their full timetable and will be having a party then. As well as the one O clock club sessions they will be running open access arts and crafts and mother and toddler music sessions. Additionally there will be sessions for children with special needs and their parents.

    • Is anyone getting rid of a play tent? I’m looking for one suitable for a 6 year old boy. Many thanks. 
    • FredMarsh Started conversation: 6 minutes ago I must agree ! Shopping in Sainsburys Dog Kennel Hill has become very unpleasant ! The erection of coral fencing  to herd us all in one direction so that we can be observed by security prior to getting into the "shop" is quite horrible. The fresh meat counter has gone . The fresh fish counter has gone. The fresh cheese counter has gone. Most of the staff have gone ! Just a couple of attended checkouts left,  sometimes just the one with people waiting quietly inline But most people are herded into the payment coral and wait just as long to do a redundant cashiers job. unload your own shopping, place your bag in the right position so that it can be weighed and the quietly pick each item you are about to purchase , look for the barcode and pass the item across the scanner. Then put item in shopping bag.  What could be easier or more efficient ? If something goes wrong or you are trying purchase alcohol, just look round nervously, not wanting to make a fuss. If nothing happens start waving to the overworked member of staff in a sainsburys uniform  running up and down looking after a few dozen self service checkouts Don't forget to take your receipt (piece of paper that will be screwed up and discarded discreetly  shortly afterwards )  It's essential to present your receipt in order to escape the coral. There's nothing pleasant about Sainsburys any more. ! Why do I go there? Because I can get the whole thing over with and not get a parking ticket !! And NO !   I'm 77 completely knackered and am not going to get a bike

    • We do not go there anymore, it used to be a pleasant experience, but now shoppers are made to feel like criminals and the prices are not great. The till receipt gates to stop us nicking stuff do not work half the time - I would rather shop somewhere that makes me feel welcome. We also want to support our local independents, so we are trying to eat cheaper using less costly ingredients and buy local - it's a good way for us also to lose some weight! Veg and pulses.....and less booze 😞
