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

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.

    • That's actually why the Sherlock Holmes stories were so popular. There was so little crime people found it exciting to imagine robberies and murders happening in London.
    • Yes, because of course there were no violent robberies in the olden days. Pretty much no crime happened at all I believe through the entire Victorian era.
    • Hi all, Im a Southwark council leaseholder and live downstairs in a ground floor flat, there is one flat above me, it's a house with individual front doors leading from the street into the shared pathway. My neighbour told me he has had a ring doorbell installed, no discussion as to how I would feel being on camera everytime I go in and out or in my front garden. I was told it's only for deliveries and doesn't record and only activates when pressed, however I don't know this and I feel really uncomfortable everytime I'm out in garden or on doorstep talking to people. Everytime I walk in/out, it lights up and in the eve it has a  infra red  light. Now I've read up that as he said its only for deliveries, he could set it so it only activates when pressed, however it activates with its motion sensor. Had he said to me about getting it installed, I could have had the opportunity to ask about it recording etc but nothing except it's being installed and when I arrived home it was there. I don't like being horrible to people however I feel I have not been considered in his decision and I feel very uncomfortable as, some times I have to stand on doorstep to get signal for my mobile and I really don't like the idea of being watched and listened to. Has anyone got any advice as I'm beginning to get angry as I've asked about it once and was told it only activates when pressed. I believe this is not true. I know southwark council say you need to ask permission to make sure the neighbours are OK with it, I don't really want to go down that road but I don't know how to approach the subject again. They also put a shed approx 3 foot from my back room window, these places are built so my window faces their rear garden and there upstairs window  faces mine. They said it's there temporarily, that was over a year ago and it does affect the light, plus I'm hoping to sell up soon and the view from window is mainly a dark brown shed. When I've mentioned this, I was told they have no where else to put it, whereas originally they said its only temporary, Also the floorboards above are bare and I get woke early morning and at night, the thudding is so bad my light shakes and window rattles, so I mentioned this and asked if they have rugs, I was told when they get the boards re sanded they will get rugs, I should have asked if they could get rugs and just take them up when boards being done, which I would have done had it been me living above someone, their attitude was I can just put up with it until they are ready. so they had the floor boards done, and the workmen was hammering screws, yes screws, in the floorboards, I spoke to workmen to ask how much longer and they said yes, are using screws to make less noise! I could hear the cordless screwdriver, not an issue but for every screw there were at least 8 whacks, the owners had gone out to avoid the noise  so I  spoke to workmen as the noise was unbearable, the sanding, not an issue at all, people need to get things done to their home and I'm fine that on occasions there will be temporary noise. now I have a nice crack on my bedroom ceiling, I mentioned this to owner but no response, he said there were alot of loose floorboards and it will be much better now, not so noisy, as though I don't know the difference between squeaking floor boards and thudding, and nothing was mentioned re the crack or that they now have rugs, which if it were me, I'd be trying to resolve the issue so we can get on with feeling happy in our homes. so I'm feeling it's a total lack of consideration. these places are old and Edwardian and I've lived here over 40 years, had 4 different neighbours and it's only now the noise of thudding is really bad and the people before had floorboards but nothing like this. As you can probably tell I'm really wound up and I don't want to end up exploding at them, I've always got on with neighbours and always said if there's a problem with my dog, pls let me know, always tell me, however I feel it's got to the point where I say something and I'm fobbed off. I know I should tell them but I'm angry, perhaps I should write them a letter. Any suggestions greatly appreciated and thank you for reading my rant.
