Children & FamilyWorkshops & Classes

Tell Me a Story

Join us every Thursday morning for Tell Me a Story, our warm and welcoming story and rhyme time for pre-schoolers and their parents and carers. Each week we share favourite picture books, lively rhymes, and gentle songs that little ones love – helping them build early language skills and a lifelong love of stories. There’s time to play, chat, and connect with other local families too. It’s free, fun, and perfect for children aged 0–4 and their grown-ups. No need to book – just drop in and join the storytelling magic!

Sports & Fitness

Core-Based Yoga with Susie Blackie

Beginner and open yoga classes for the Older and Wiser people of our community, where STRENGTH, BALANCE and AGILITY can be a challenge but is so important as we age. These classes are held in the brand new light and airy, super-clean space at the new library. The cafe is usually open for coffee. This is a great way to share time with like-minded people in a safe, relaxed and friendly environment. These classes aim to balance the mind and body with the exploration of physical postures (asanas), breathing techniques (pranayama) and the calming of the mind through relaxation and meditation. Please bring your own mat and block. Wear relaxed, light clothing to explore yoga and perhaps see the world in a slightly different way.

Live Music

CrickleSingers Community Choir

Love to sing? Come and join CrickleSingers — a warm, welcoming community choir based at Cricklewood Library. No auditions, no need to read music — just enthusiasm and a willingness to have fun! We meet on Thursday evenings during term time to sing an eclectic mix of music — from Icelandic and Hungarian gems to pop, folk, classical, and everything in between. Under the joyful direction of Enda Henehan, our delightful Musical Director, rehearsals are full of laughter and discovery. CrickleSingers is as much about community as it is about music — with regular social events and twice-yearly performances to share what we’ve been working on. Whether you’re a seasoned singer or a complete beginner, come along and add your voice to the mix! There will be a chance to sample the delights of singing with us before committing. New joiners can start within the first two weeks of any term. Affordable fees payable termly in advance.

Live Music

Crickleukers Bi-Monthly Uke Jam

This is CrickleUkers – our FREE bi-monthly (first and third Fridays) ukulele jam and sing-along. Meet at the library for an hour of plucking, strumming, singing and jamming. Experienced volunteers will guide us through the chords towards the production of beautiful tunes. And we’ll have a great old time doing it! If you’re a complete beginner, Brendan is on hand to help with the beginner chords. We also have a few spare ukes to lend out, so no need to have your own, but if you have your own, do bring it. There are also some tuners and we’ll provide a few uke tab sheets, but it’s better if you can access the songsheets we’ll be using onto your phone or tablet. We will use the songbook kindly provided by Ukulele Wednesdays (Songbook 4), which you can find here. Places are limited for fire safety purposes, so please do register. If you can come a few minutes early to help set seats out, and to tidy up afterwards, so much the better – this is a volunteer-led activity and we all have homes to go to…..
