Hi mum, dads, grannies and grandads! Do you want something local outdoors and nature related to do with your children/ grandchildren during the Easter Holidays? Holly is back running Easter Holiday Muddy Boots Sessions open to OLDER CHILDREN - (up to and including 12 years) in the Devonshire Road Nature Reserve. (older and younger children can come together) All children will be able to engage in the activities to differing levels and i will have a range of activities to keep everyone busy. The knot tying and rope work session is more complicated so better for 5+. All are welcome to any session especially if siblings (i will have a range of activities that will suit all ages). Nature learning and nature craft, wool craft, tool use, bird spotting, amphibian studies, leaf and bark ID, pond life ID, classifying animals, learning birdsong, nature poems and stories, walks in the woods, possible notebook sewing, being together, hanging out in the meadow, being free, being happy, fresh air.. ALL SESSIONS will include activities plus a woodland walk and a tug of war in the meadow (grouped into ages!)

Muddy Boots outdoor pre-school nature group has an unavoidable time change tomorrow Friday 9th May. Instead of 10-11.30 it will run at 1.30-3pm. From Monday 12th onwards the sessions will return to being at 10-11.30am. Apologies for this unavoidable change (there is another event happening at the Reserve), please PM or email me [email protected] if you need further info. Best Wishes, Holly at the Devonshire Road Nature Reserve

Hi, Does anyone know of any gymnastics classes in addition to the one at Alleyn's school and Ladywell Gymnastics club. Im preferably looking for a one hour class rather than 2 hours, but would be interested to hear about any in the area really. Thanks Holly

Sorry for the delay, thanks to all of you for your help on this.

Hi, Ive been searching for this info on the forum for a list of Montessori registered nurseries/preschools and have found Half Moon Montessori and Dulwich Montessori (and Cherry Tree on Lacon Road tho not sure how much this actually follows Montessori?) Could anyone let me know if there are any other Montessori nurseries local to East Dulwich/Forest Hill please. Also as I know theres often big variations, if anyone has an indication to how closely they follow the Montessori teaching technique Id be really intersted to hear. Thanks very much

Hi, Does anyone know if the paddling pools have water in them yet - Brockwell, or Ruskin parks? kelda

Hi, Is there a car share organisation operating in East Dulwich? Or alternatively, does anyone know of a reasonable car hire company? Thanks! Holly
