Looking for ways to keep the children entertained this summer? The Howard Centre has plenty to help make the school holidays fun, easy and full of ideas.

Let little ones burn off some energy in our free soft play area or enjoy a game in our free Ping Pong Parlour. Once they’ve worked up an appetite, stop by Wenzel’s for a tasty bite, or head to Hi-Tea to cool down and quench everyone’s thirst after all that playing.

We’ll also be hosting free community events throughout the summer, so keep an eye on our What’s On page to see what’s coming up. There’s something for everyone to enjoy.

Planning some fun at home? Visit The Entertainer for toys, games and activities to keep children busy, from arts and crafts and LEGO to fancy dress and family favourites.

And if you’re heading away over the holidays, pop into stores such as Monsoon and H&M for those last-minute summer essentials, including swimwear, sunglasses, holiday outfits, dresses, shorts and T-shirts.

Whatever your summer plans, The Howard Centre is here to help keep the whole family busy.
