Recommended Posts

After a fully booked half term holiday club in October, we're now planning our next Nimble Arts half term holiday club in February 2015, running from the 16th - 20th February. Booking will open really soon, so you can sign up to be the first to know at http://nimblearts.co.uk/?page_id=217, and we'll open advance booking on here too!


Each day we will run creative workshops for 4-11 year olds (workshops 10 - 4, with early drop off/late pick up available 8.30 - 5, half days only for 4 year olds), and we're also launching our Nimble Arts Masterclass strand for 11 - 14 year olds. These will be small, focussed afternoon workshops really exploring and experiencing different art forms, places very limited!


We'll update here when booking opens, but the days will be:


Monday 16th February

Holiday Club: Arts and Crafts - four different creative workshop

Masterclass: An afternoon acting workshop for 11-14 year olds

And here's what some parents have been saying about our courses:


'He has already asked if he can go to another workshop!'


?Thanks so much for last Tuesday?s band workshop. E enjoyed it so much and can?t stop talking about it.? Ian, Parent


?Just thought I?d pass on that D said today was fantastic ? and the best day of her half term by some way!? Emma, Parent


?As a granny responsible for some fetching and taking of two participants, I just wanted to say how impressed I was by the teachers running the course. They were so gentle, friendly and positive and understood brilliantly my rather quirky 8-year-old grand-daughter. How wonderful if all primary school teachers could be like them!? Brigid, Grandparent


?they also loved the band who came in on Tuesday, it?s really the best holiday club they?ve ever been to!? Parent


Via Twitter: ?I love Nimble Arts, it?s the best holiday club in the area by far!? #eastdulwich


From the East Dulwich Forum: ?It?s really very good ? they do absolutely loads and it?s very creative and fun.?

Nimble HQ will be open for a couple more days if you've any questions about the courses, and we'll be taking bookings throughout the festive period, but get in there quickly, as places normally book up in advance of the courses. We'll also be running clubs in Easter and the May bank holiday, and will open advance booking soon for anyone who is particularly organised!


Have a lovely Christmas and new years break, and we look forward to seeing many of you soon for a crafty and creative 2015.

We're now accepting childcare vouchers for our holiday club and Masterclass February courses! Places are going pretty quickly, but we've still space on all days, although I'll keep this updated when they fill up!

Just an update on spaces available, as our inbox is heaving a bit as this seems to be the week in which everyone is booking up their half term plans! We've still got room on all days for both holiday clubs and masterclasses. They're particularly going quickly for the start of the week, so we imagine that the Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday may fill up fairly soon (we're nearing 2/3 full on these days). At the moment, there's still plenty of room so far on the Thursday and Friday. Our sound lab day (the Thursday) has often been our most popular, and we had a fairly long waiting list last time, so I'll pop a note on here if it's looking busy. Friday tends to often have more room as we know it's a day many parents have off work!


I'll keep this posted! Any questions about Nimble Arts, do email us at [email protected], or drop me a message here, and you can book online at our website.


We're just perfecting our final touches to the workshop details each day, so I'll get this up on here and on our website within the next couple of days too. What I can say is that we have a very exciting team of professional artists, photographers, film makers and more ready to lead some top notch creative sessions, we can't wait!


And if you're very organised and thinking of next holidays, just to let you know we'll definitely be running for the whole Easter break, apart from the bank holiday Monday and Friday (although we may be cooking up something different those days), and also over the May half term holiday.

    • OMFG is it possible for the council to do anything without a bunch of armchair experts moaning about it? The library refurb is great news, as it's lovely but completely shagged out - the toilets don't even work reliably. Other libraries in the area will be open longer house during the closure. July is a rubbish time to begin a refurb because it's just before the entire construction sector goes on summer holiday, and it would mean delaying the work another 8 months.
    • Licensing application for 2026 has gone in and they want to extend the event from 4 to 7 days accross two weekends.  There are some proposed significant changes to be aware of:   Event proposal moves to two separate weekends Number of days of the festival moves from 4 to 7 meaning also a change in the original licence is required Expected footfall in the park over the two weekends around 60,000.    Dear Peckham Rye Park Stakeholder,   Re: STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION – event application: ‘GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’ – ref: SWKEVE000935   We are writing to you because you have previously identified yourself as someone who wishes to be informed about event applications for Peckham Rye Park, or we think that you might have an interest in knowing about this particular event application.   Please be aware that the council are in receipt of an event application for: GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’   In line with the council’s Outdoor Events Policy and events application process we are carrying out consultation regarding this application.   The following reference documents are attached to this email:   Consultation information APPENDIX A – site plan weekend 1 APPENDIX B – site plan weekend 2 APPENDIX C – Production Schedule APPENDIX D – 2025 Noise Management Plan   The consultation is open from Tuesday 4 November and will close at midnight on Tuesday 2 December 2025   Community engagement sessions will take place on Wednesday 19 November.   If you would like to comment on application: SWKEVE000935 and take part in the online consultation, please visit:   www.southwark.gov.uk/GALA2026   If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.     Kind Regards, Southwark Events Team Environment and Leisure PO Box 64529 London SE1P 5LX 020 7525 3639 @SouthwarkEvents APPENDIX A - SITE PLAN weekend 1.pdf APPENDIX B - SITE PLAN weekend 2.pdf APPENDIX C - PRODUCTION SCHEDULE.pdf And just to add that councillor Renata Hamvas chairs the licensing committee. Worth contacting her with views on ammendments to the original license. I am fairly sure she won't grant any amendments, but just in case.....
    • Second time Aria has completed a plumbing job for me and both times he’s been polite. Communicative, kept to time and completed the job. He’s very helpful and tidy as well. First job was ball valve in water tank, not easy at all. He and his team were fantastic. This time kitchen tap cylinders replaced and tap tightened.  Much appreciated, Aria thank you.
    • Thought others may be interested to help a local community centre help others.    My bank account offers roundup and it’s been growing all year. As well as treating myself or putting it towards a train ticket to see my family I’ve made a donation to the Albrighton. They can use donations at any time but I hope my donation will go towards the Christmas hampers.    Can you support them so they can provide Christmas hampers?   https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/albrightoncommunityfridge?utm_id=1&utm_term=M22JKQb6W   A donation of £50 will pay for a hamper to feed a family over this Christmas period. A donation of £30 will pay for a hamper to feed someone living on their own over the Christmas period.
