What it is
More than just a holiday club.
It's a holiday club with specialist support behind it. The days are relaxed and unhurried, moving at a pace that suits each young person. It's made for kids who need something flexible and fun.
A carefully held group. Three to four specialist SEN mentors, and never more than three young people to one. All enhanced-DBS checked and PDA-trained. Every young person gets their own individual plan, and every session is overseen by our Founder and Lead Practitioner, alongside our SEN Lead of Education and Inclusion. Parents are warmly welcome to stay, and to join in.

Three worlds to dive into
Something for the way their mind works.
Games & Strategy
Chess and card games they love, and quietly learn so much from.
For the thinkers and the strategists
Drama & Play
Improv and silly characters, with a lot of laughing and no one ever put on the spot.
For the performers and the playful
Art & Making
Gentle, sensory-friendly making, in their own time, from drawing and design to anime and manga.
For the makers and the dreamers
All three run side by side, and young people move freely between them.
And always, the choice to simply watch, with no pressure to join in until they want to.
How to join
It's never just a ticket.
Because there are so few of them, we get to know every young person first. Here's how it works:
01
Register your interest
Tell us about your young person. Nothing formal, just a hello.
02
A short, friendly chat
A quick call to understand them and check the group feels right.
03
A few things to complete together
We'll send a short individual plan and a few details to complete, so we know what they need before day one.
04
Your place, confirmed
Once those are back and it's a good fit, we'll send what you need to confirm a place.
Please register at least a week before the Friday you'd like, so there's time for the call and the paperwork.
The setting

One of Dulwich's most beautiful places to spend a Friday.
Bell House, Dulwich. A Grade II* listed Georgian house, and our home here for three years. Today it's a warm, characterful education centre, with high-ceilinged rooms, tall windows and a calm that's hard to find in the city.
Summer 2026
Could this be their summer?
With only nine places each Friday, spaces are genuinely limited. If it sounds like somewhere your young person could feel at home, we'd love to hear from you, whether you're new to us or coming back again.
These Fridays are just one part of what we do, alongside what we offer families year-round. See how EOTAS works →
