Hi there, hoping someone could come up with some good ideas. Hoping to go for a day out on Saturday for my sons 2nd birthday with various family members, including a ten and twelve year old. Any ideas for something that would entertain all ages, including the adults? Had thought about a trip on the Thames cable car, then the London Docklands Museum followed by lunch somewhere. Anyone done this and can recommend or any alternative ideas welcomed. Thanks.

A tour in the Dinausores room of the NHM and to the Science museum (perfect all for all ages).

You can borrow for free an explorator kit at the entrance (very fun for little ones and for bigger, they can be dectectives!)


Finsih by a nice treat with an afternoon tea at the Amperstand Hotel (very good value for money! very nice venue, nealy new boutique h?tel and afternoon tea for 17?).


After Tea, if you all have again energy and the weather is nice, a nice tour in South Kens gardens changea bit ofour lovely Dulwich park. (nice playground for kids)


From WD station you are easily there (you go to victoria and take the tube to South kens) or relatively easy to park around the WE...it takes us door to door 25min when we go there. Only thing is that it can be busy over the WE! we are used to go on Fridays, and when it's not school holidays....

anyway just an idea

My sons loves both of those museums since he has 2yrs and my nephew ( 9, 13 , and 17 ) had loved it too when I've brought them there.

We had a brilliant day out for my 2.8 yo recently at Godstone Farm - loads to see for little ones and we enjoyed it too! Lots of animals, a soft play, reasonable cafe, big sandpits and tractor rides. There's also a big adventure playground near the exit - we didn't go in as ran out of time but the older kids might enjoy that.
Recently went to London Docklands Museum with my 2 year old, she loved it, lots for the adults and it tends to be quiet on Saturdays too. We just went to the Strada next door but there's lots of lunch options around. Haven't been on the cable car yet but really want to!
Cable car is great fun for that age - get the 360 round trip ticket... We took the boat (Thames clipper) from London bridge or tower bridge to north greenwich and then back to Greenwich for lunch and or visit to maritime museum where there is a good cafe ... The boat is part of the funwe find

    • Why don’t you speak to head of English at private schools? Might be able to recommend a senior student.. pity now summer hols.   Was how my friend found a tutor for both their kids - maths and science and English.. They also have some mag covering schools as well
    • What is the reason for the change in name? Just curious.
    • Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous,  meaningless and empty
    • 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!
