More Space to Play, Explore and Enjoy
School holidays are here, and if you’re looking for somewhere the whole family can spend the day, Westown Square has plenty of ways to keep little ones busy — while the grown-ups get to enjoy themselves too.
From open-air playgrounds and a quick game of soccer to great food, green lawns and indoor adventures for rainy days, you can make a whole day of it.
Six playgrounds. Endless energy.
Sometimes, the simplest things are the best.
Westown Square has six open-air playgrounds that are completely free to use, giving kids plenty of space to climb, play and burn off some school-holiday energy while you grab a coffee, enjoy a bite to eat or simply soak up the sunshine.
And because Westown is pet-friendly, your furry family members don’t have to miss out on the day either. Bring them along, enjoy a walk around the Square and settle in for a relaxed family outing.
Ready, set, play!
For kids with energy to spare, Total Ninja brings a whole new level of adventure to Westown Square. With obstacles, challenges and plenty of opportunities to climb, jump and test their skills, it’s a great school-holiday activity — especially when the weather isn’t playing along.
You’ll also find Spur’s amazing indoor play area, making it an easy choice for lunch or dinner when the kids would rather play than sit still.
Rainy day? Sunny day? There’s always somewhere to play.
Have a quick kick-about
Sometimes all you need is a ball.
Head to the small soccer arena outside Wimpy for a quick three-a-side game with friends, siblings or the family. No complicated plans required — just grab a ball, pick your teams and have a kick-around.
Take lunch to the lawns
One of the best things about a school-holiday day out is not having to rush.
Choose something delicious from one of the restaurants and eateries around The Square or The Barn, grab it to go and head down to The Bowl.
Find a spot on the lawns, settle in for lunch, let the kids enjoy the open space and make the most of a sunny KZN day. Whether it’sburgers, pizza, coffee, something sweet or a family favourite, there are plenty of options to turn an ordinary lunch into a relaxed picnic-style afternoon.
Bring the kids. Bring the dog. Stay a while.
There doesn’talways need to be a big plan for the school holidays.
Come for breakfast and a play. Meet friends for lunch. Let the kids tackle Total Ninja. Have a kick-about. Grab a takeaway and find a sunny spot on the grass. Bring the dog along for the adventure.
With free outdoor play, indoor entertainment, family-friendly restaurants, open spaces and plenty to explore, Westown Square makes it easy to fill a few hours — or spend the whole day.
This school holiday, come out and play at Westown Square.
