About this outing
Kennington Park Centre brings together free play for two age groups. Parents and carers can attend Stay & Play with under-fives from Monday to Thursday, 10am–1pm. The separate adventure-play service is for ages 6–16, with climbing structures, a zip-wire, sports, arts, games and cooking led by playworkers. Its after-school club runs on Wednesdays, 3.30pm–6.30pm during term time.
Planning your visit
- Parents and carers attend the under-five sessions with their children. Contact the operator for current holiday-play arrangements; these are separate from the regular term-time club.
