Theatre
Chicken Licken
Polka Theatre, opens on 5 April
Audiences are invited to join a courageous chicken who needs to let everyone know there is a problem! Acorns are raining from the sky, and an umbrella just isn’t strong enough… A charming family show suitable for children aged 3-7.
Food
Al Forno
Wimbledon
Al Forno is a lively and vibrant restaurant with a distinctly family-friendly vibe. The interiors are cosy and welcoming, with little nooks that transport you to the feeling of being in a little restaurant tucked in the historic side streets of Italy. They have an extensive menu ranging from starters of meatballs and burrata, to mains of freshly made pasta and deliciously succulent fish.
Days out
Gold Bunny Hunt
Hampton Court Palace
Visitors to the palace will be able to explore magnificent gardens in search of the Lindt Gold Bunny statues peeking out from the daffodils.
Open Day: Springtime at Gatton
Gatton Park, Reigate, 6 April

Music
Wimbledon Choral
Cadogan Hall, 5 April
Come and hear Wimbledon Choral and the City of London Sinfonia performing Haydn’s Nelson Mass, one of the composer’s most stunning and dramatic works
