FUN FOR EVERYONE AT SUMMER CLUB

FUN FOR EVERYONE AT SUMMER CLUB

Summer Club is an important part of All Saints life. This annual children’s club, run by Julia Chittell and her team, is committed to the idea that all children in the local community, regardless of their religion, ethnicity, abilities or which estate or street you live on in Fulham, should be able to enjoy the summer at its best.

The Club is open to all primary school children and works on the principle that financial constraints or additional needs should never be a barrier to joining If you can arrange for your child to be delivered to the church hall in the morning, they are welcome to spend the day with us.

Focus on fun

From building dens to climbing trees, from playing sports to inventive games, from creating stories to arts and crafts, from making music with Sam Poppleton to dancing with Patricia there’s so much to do If the weather is wet, you’ll likely find the Club playing games in the church hall If the sun is shining they’ll be out in the paddock – the green space beyond the Hall itself There are trips planned to Go Ape, Fulham Palace (where last year the children built labyrinths using only materials found in nature), the Thames at low tide and Wimbledon Common. The Wimbledon trip will have a whether the wild things are theme and even involve some litter picking

Godparents who regularly donate the money needed to be truly inclusive

Looking ahead, the Church Hall and paddock is a safe space for holiday clubs as well as our weekday baby and toddler groups, but it is cold and leaky in the winter. The proposed refurbishment will enable Julia to create a happy hub for families, with ample storage space for all her equipment, and where parents and carers know they can bring their children to a warm, safe and inviting space to share creative and inspiring play, friendship and fun.
