Who's ready for Easter half term?
For most schools in Dunstable the half term is 7th - 21st April
Looking for fun things to do this spring Half Term in and around Dunstable? I've compiled a fantastic list of events and activities to keep the kids entertained!
Be sure to check our What's On section here for the full list of events where you can search for specific dates. I try my best to ensure all events have the most up to date information but please always double-check with event organisers or their websites before setting off as details may change. If you're looking to plan a day out with the kids to the farm, zoo or soft play check out our things to do section here.
If you're working over half term or just looking for ways to let the kids have some fun and give yourself a little break, you'll find all the info you need in our Holiday Clubs section here.
Lastly if you have seen an event advertised on social media that isn't on the website please do tag me in the post so I can share the event. If you are a business running an event this half term that isnt already featured on the website, complete a event form for free here or e-mail me at [email protected]
I will update the guide when more activities and events are published so be sure to check back for the most up to date list -
