Our new booking system is now live!!

Click ‘Book Sessions’ from our menu to get started!

About our new booking system:

  • It’s quick and easy!
  • You no longer need to complete a registration separately to your booking, and the details you provide the first time will be remembered by the system each time you book.
  • Booking the One O’Clock Club or Sensational Saturdays: you no longer need to provide children’s details at all, but we’d like to know the number of children you are bringing!
  • Booking the Adventure Playground: you need to provide some details about your child for their safety and wellbeing.  These do not match the old system, so we are asking you to provide them the first time you book.

Parent Survey Response 2022, Adventure Playground

“A safe secure place for me to go with multiple children where I know they can enjoy child-led play with set-ups and activities that change all the time to offer a great variety, and I can keep an eye on everyone whilst still being able to chat to other adults.”
