Welcome to Marble Hill Playcentres

Our Adventure Playground (for 5 -15 year olds), One O’Clock Club (for under 5’s) and SENsational Saturday Club (for children with disabilities and additional needs) encourage children of all ages, backgrounds and abilities to participate in outdoor adventurous play and express themselves physically, mentally and socially, whilst having fun.

Testimonials
Praise for Marble Hill Playcentres
“I like that the children can have some independence supported by friendly staff and that there are options for different levels.”
“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.”
“Freedom for the children to explore, independent play, range of activities, friendly staff in the 1oclock club”
“Meeting other parents whose children have SEND !”
“Being able to leave my child to play independently and make new friends “
“For the children, physical activity, sunlight and fresh air, and some time away from screens. Also, low-pressure opportunities to socialise with other children.”
“People understand if your child is having a meltdown – no one judges you”
“Being outside! We don’t have a garden so the outdoors he loves! So many toys and water play too!”
“Plenty for my son to do while I can supervise from a distance and have a chat to other parents.”
