Hi all,


I just wanted to update you all with the new timetable (just updated today) for

the stay and play sessions at the old One o clock club, (now Peckham rye playrooms:)) are:


Tue and Fri : 10am-12pm

Thur: 1.30pm-3.30pm


And if for any mums-to-be I am running a pregnancy group there, with the childrens centre midwife. We will be there on Mondays 11.30am-1pm term time only.


hope to see you around


Thanks

Natalie

I guess because there's only so much council resources to go round and council workers need time off too. You need to pay overtime to staff if they work weekends which may compromise the viability of the free centre. Plus some of these facilities (certainly at Peckham) are part staffed by volunteers and it's more difficult to get people to give up their time at weekends. That said I think some Children's Centres so run sessions on saturday mornings. I just feel so lucky that we're in an area that has so many free activities available!

Hi all,


I am the baby worker at the children's centre . It is harder for the centre to provide sessions on a weekend, but I'll pass on the comments and maybe weekend sessions could happen later in the year.

Enjoy the snow all.

Thanks Natalie, and sorry if I sounded snotty!


I just find sometimes that it's hard for working parents or partners to get involved in these initatives. I have taken my little man to story time at Peckham Library on weekends (run by volunteers) but that is all I seem to be able to do. Rhyme-time, baby-swim, One-O'clock club all seem to be during the week only.


Anyway, maybe it's because the demand isn't there! I don't know, but I would like to be involved, and I'm sure there are others, along with the week-working partners of families already involved who would like to join in too!?

Hi antantant,


You didn't come across snotty at all, you were just asking a very valid question :) I shall mention the suggestions at the next parent forum.


Thanks Fushia for the albrighton info.


Have a lovely snowy weekend all.


Thanks

Natalie

    • Memes top of lordship haircut shampoo blow dry about £25  dulwich barbers hair cut about£22  jazzes haircut about £26 
    • Re Day One, £52 for a short hair cut (cut & styling) and £72 for a long hair cut (cut & styling) which I believe is below the ears.  £38 for a blow dry which doesn’t appear to be included in the cut price as it’s not mentioned.  £15 for a fringe tidy.      I remember being startled to be charged separately for a blow dry by the salon that used to be in Melbourne Grove but is now closed down.  I was asked if I wanted a blow dry after the cut and highlights and said yes, but wasn’t told that I would be charged separately.  Only found out when I went to pay the bill.    Was offered a voucher on a further appointment.    De.Salon which used to be Cut-Throat in Peckham (Choumert Rd and Brixton) charge from £45 for a Short haircut that finishes by the ears.  They charge from £40 for any haircut that finishes below the jawline.  Their prices include a blow dry.  But if you have thick hair they charge an extra £15 for every additional 15 minutes for cutting.     I had my hair cut there before the name change.  I don’t understand the from part of the price. Had a look at the Blue Tit pricing which is very complicated. They charge depending on the stylist’s  experience.  Crab Salad in Peckham  -  short hair cut above the ear - from £69.    Long hair Cut below the ear from £80. Blow dry not mentioned as being included in the cut but is priced at £55 I noticed that Kuki charge different prices for men and women.  Doesn’t seem right if a woman has short hair and a man has long hair.   I used to go to a great salon in NW London  that charged the same price for men and women and stopped going when they upped their prices for women.

    • I have been training at the hub for just over one year. I really enjoy the variety of training offered and the quality of the instructors. Very effective group classes and enjoyable in the open air! A very welcoming place which makes a fitmess journey pleasant!
