We need to spend 5 hours at Gatwick this Sat morning, with our 18-month-old son who will be extremely bored and grumpy if we don't do something exciting for him :( We will have a car so we are thinking about going somewhere to entertain him (up to half hr drive away) but have no idea where. Does anyone know any indoor activities for toddlers near Gatwick?


thanks in advance!

I'm sure we went to a kids farm which was around Gatwick and was great for young ones - it had a small soft play and was quite low key compared to Godstone park. I can't remember the name of it - though think I've posted about it before. Think I found out about it on the Sussex version of Netmums. That's probably a good source of other options too.

Yes, Holmbush was the one. I thought it great for younger ones as the soft play is small and rather tame for older ones - so it doesn't get the crowds of older kids that Godstone Farm gets. And you could wander around outside with your coffee. Outside play area is great - but probably not so good in this weather.

      Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous,  meaningless and empty

      Dog Kennel Hill School to change name

      By Vik · Posted

      From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
