Age Range: 5 – 15 years
The Adventure Playground at Marble Hill Playcentres is completely unique in this borough. With its huge wooden structures and large open spaces, we provide a special place for thousands of children each year. Here children learn fantastic life lessons by testing their limits, discovering how things work and what they really enjoy to do. Adults are not permitted in the AP, giving the children freedom to make their own choices, and the opportunity to play and form new friendships with others outside of their usual peer group. We have a team of playworkers to supervise the children, facilitate play, and organise daily activities. If you have a child with additional needs who requires adult 1-1 support please complete the “All About Me” form below with your child, and call/message on 07522 182524 or email us at ap@marblehillplaycentres.com so we can help identify the right support for your child.
Closed Access in the Adventure Playground
The Adventure Playground has historically been an open access site where children are free to come and go as they choose. Due to the impact of the Covid-19 Pandemic we have made the decision to operate on a closed access, pre booked basis which enables parents to drop off their children with us for a 2 hour session.

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.”
