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


Tuesday 17th February

Holiday Club: Drama

Masterclass: Animation


Wednesday 18th February

Friday 20th February:

See some pictures from our last club at http://nimblearts.co.uk/?page_id=166


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.

    • Since you’re clearly not experiencing what we are I’m not sure I agree with any of your points. I also asked for anyone else having a similar problem… it’s absolutely fine if you’re not but I’d appreciate less of the “go live your life”. There is no need to comment with that tone, it doesn’t provide us with any help for the matter. Nor is it polite. We’re a very kind family simply not wanting damage and don’t find the actions necessary. It’s been the same driver/delivery for a while and this never used to happen. I wouldn’t post this on the forum if it wasn’t getting so frustrating. Again, the kids and myself have kindly asked for this to stop a few times with no success. We all work hard for our living and would never want (nor are we trying) to rid someone of their livelihood. But similarly, I don’t find it fair. Please feel free to PM me if anyone has any advise or shares the same.  
    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who, by moving to your position on the right, are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand).
