Highly recommend a Pottery class experience with Mark and Alan at Tradpots. You get to throw three pots (bowls, vases, jugs, it's your choice) under the expert tuition of Mark and Alan. It was great fun and I'm actually really pleased with the pots I've made. Looking forward to returning to paint them once they have dried. Our party consisted of three mums and three boys aged 10-13. Everyone had a brilliant afternoon. If you're looking for an unusual activity to do, you won't go wrong with this one!

My kids are aged 15, 13 and 10 and I have been bringing them to Prevail regularly for the last year. I was really surprised by how lovely the other kids seem to be. My youngest child doesn't have a lot of confidence and was too scared to use one of the ramps but he had quite a few other children coming up to him and trying to help him. It was really lovely to see. The kids seem to organise themselves well and take it in turns. The staff are quite young, but they have great customer service and run the place really well.

That feeling you get when you can't find your prescious 18 mth toddler and start to fear the worst!! We had been having lots of fun with the kids at the Ark in Poole Park. A great colourful place to go to have fun as well as a sitdown for a more relaxing cuppa while the kids play. When suddenly ourlittle girl had disappeared from where we thought she was.. We started looking around for her, after a couple of minutes searching panic started to set in.. a totally gut wrenching feeling. We approached a staff member at the Ark reception ...Jess & Nicki immediatly started to help us and were amazing, they were so calm and caring and totally took control of the situation reassuring me and going above and behond to methodically check the building. Having looked everywhere we thought she could have been she was no where to be found, it was terrifying!! just as I was starting to totally loose it, tears welling up feeling begining to shake... they found our little monkey Bella in the disabled toilet cubical making a mess playing splishy splashy in the sink, getting completely soaked! Thr relief seeing her was overwhelming... The ladies were straight on to it cleaning up the mess making spotless again with the most wonderful positive attitude. Thankyou for being so very kind and caring, we will cetainly be coming back there soon. It is reassuring knowing that those who work there triple check who leaves with who, and throughout all of this offered stacks of genuine kind reassurances that she'd be found, as safety is a top priority there. See you soon Karen, Mark, Logan (9) & Bella 18months)
