Summer Term Kids Classes 2026

We’ve put together this handy reference guide to local kids classes and activities that take place from now until the summer school holidays in Richmond Borough – baby classes, toddler classes, and classes for older children.  As always, if there’s anything you’d like to see added, just let us know! …and although we do our best to keep the guide accurate by updating it every term, if you spot any mistakes please do drop us a line so we can correct it.

There’s a lot here, so the listings are split into four sections to help you find what you’re looking for: 1) Creative, Craft & Forest School; 2) Drama, Dance & Singing; 3) Music & Developmental; and 4) Sport & Movement (the links take you straight to the section you’re interested in, which hopefully makes the guide a bit easier to navigate).
