Our centre is not just about play, we also promote health and education for children in a fun, safe environment.  You will find lots of information linked to the National Curriculum throughout the play frame.  Whilst they play, your children can learn about protecting the environment, as well as finding out about rainforest animals including snakes, spiders, butterflies and birds.

They will be encouraged to run, climb, crawl, jump, slide, swing, dodge, hop, clamber, race, and chase – all of which gives them an abundance of fun and EXERCISE!  There are loads of unique and exciting activities to enjoy during your visit.

Meet our fun characters – Phillius Frog, Slipper Snake, Teefa Toucan and Flitter Butterfly.  The children will learn all about their amazing life cycles whilst they play.

Adventure Point is equipped with some of the very best play equipment available in the World. All of this is provided without compromising safety. We have worked closely with ILAM (Institute of Leisure and Amenity Management) and ROSPA (Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents) to ensure that accidents are minimised but safety and fun are maximised.

From the point of view of health, Adventure Point can help in two ways:

  • An hour or two of play at Adventure Point is probably the most fun your children can have while getting a really good workout without even realising! All that stretching, running, crawling and sliding will raise their heart rate and exercise their lungs. The added bonus is that it all helps to ensure they sleep well when you get them home!
  • After all that activity they’ll need to re-fuel and you can trust Adventure Point to provide them with something delicious and nutritious. All our tasty dishes are prepared in house and are cooked in as healthy a way as possible. Whenever we can we use fresh ingredients and make all our own sauces and dressings. For a really healthy burst, try a fresh juice from our amazing “Jungle Juice” menu or treat them to a “Fruit Splatter” – all made using 100% fresh fruit in fun and child-friendly recipes!

Most school children in Britain are not getting enough exercise to keep healthy, according to the British Heart Foundation. It says that many children are not meeting the recommended 60 minutes of physical activity a day, and only one in every eight children is getting that amount of exercise. Their report found that most children spend more time texting friends or surfing the internet than having a kick around at the park. They predict that almost 70 per cent of children will be overweight by 2050.
