Hi, We are looking for volunteers to help create some fun features out of Peckham crates/ flowers/ astro turf for our to transform a local parkland into a lovely Green space for festival goers. Peckham Festiva is Peckham's first Peckham-wide festival, celebrating Peckham's creative and cultural talent and backed by Southwark Council, 8th-11th September. We're looking for crafty, enthusiastic volunteers to help decorate and prepare our lovely green area, which we're calling the Reclaimed Rye. It'll be on Wednesday 31st in the evening at the Bussey Building on Rye Lane. Created by our festival director, they're fairly straightforward to put together but we need 30, so we're looking for a small group of 6-10 people. We'll provide instruction. Please do get in contact if you think this may be of any interest. With best wishes, Jules Hill - festival volunteer 07958 397 935

Hi, St John's & St Clement's primary school's PTFA is organising a couple of get togethers for the new reception intake 2014. This will provide an opportunity for parents/ carers/ children to meet and familiarise themselves with other children before the new school year begins. We hope to see you on Friday 18th July and/or Friday 5th September from 3.30-4.30 pm at Goose green park ( Adys road end). (If the weather is dreadful then the event will be postponed but let's hope for sunshine!!) SJSC PTFA
