May half term 2014 - holiday clubs

[Lucky7]

I'm planning early - does anyone know of any holiday clubs for a 6 year old running during the May half term? So Tuesday 27th - Friday 30th May from at least 9-5pm each day.

Thanks

Hi,

My mum used to send me to place during the holidays called Scamps, I used to love going there, I made loads of friends!

Its in dulwich college school. It has loads of fun activities that your child can choose from.

Here's the link https://www.avpsports.co.uk/index.php?page=home

I hope this was helpful :)

Nimble arts .....

Artastic

Both advertise on these boards, sorry can't do links, but my daughter has been to both and loved them.

Check with you local primary schools, as some primary schools have holiday clubs. Also check on the Southwark website.

Thank you everyone. I'll have a look at your recommendations and suggestions. My son has been to scamps before but I don't think they will be running over the May half term. Also, just found out that Holiday drop-off at Dulwich College will be running from the 27th - 30th of May and their times are from 8 - 5pm.

Thank you again.

Hi Grace,

Scamps doesn't run in the may half term but Holiday Drop Off does.

This camp can be found at www.holidaydropoff.com and more uptodate photos can be found at www.facebook.com/holidaydropoff

Hi- we've still some spaces for Nimble Arts holiday club in East Dulwich (based at Heber school) if you're still looking. We've got a variety of creative activities, with some great artists and practitioners joining us, all with a bit of an interplanetary/sci-fi theme!

Monday: space themed arts and crafts (we're offering half days on this as we know you might have family activities planned some of the day!)

Tuesday: Drama - join the mad professor's space lab!

Wedenesday: 'Take flight' acrobatics and circus skills

Thursday: Sound Lab - weird and wonderful music and sounds

Friday: Film Lab - create your own film!

All details are at www.nimblearts.co.uk. From experience the mid-week days tend to fill up more quickly, but there's still space on all days for the time being!

Hello, just had a quick look and nimble arts and holiday drop off only seem to be available for ages 5+. Does anyone know any camps available from age 4 (like AVP scamps)?

Thanks

Hi LalKJ - at Nimble Arts we can take 4 year olds for 4 hours at a time (it's to do with the terms of early years registration - probably why most clubs operate for 5 upwards!) which we often arrange for younger siblings and friends. If 4 hours is any use, do drop me a PM or email ([email protected]), but appreciate you probably need childcare for the full day. We're hoping to offer this at some point as we're experienced early years practitioners and teachers!

Thanks LovelyRita, I will pm you. For me, it's not for childcare, just for a change of scene/something interesting for my son, so 4 hrs could work perfectly.
