Richmond Rompers

Classes take place from Monday to Friday between 9.30am and 3.30pm at the RGA centre using our main purpose built gym and specific pre-school equipment. All the classes are Ύ hour long.

The classes are structured and children are encouraged to learn early balance, co-ordination and gymnastic skills through a variety of activities each week.

Children attend classes depending upon their age: 

  • 18 months – 2 ½ years

  • 2 ½  - 3 ½ years

  • 3 ½  - 5 years

Children aged 18 months  - 2 ½ years attend parent and toddler classes. The other two age groups attend the class on their own. If children are not ready to attend classes without a parent/carer they may stay in parent and toddler classes until they are 3 years old. There is a waiting area for parents/carers at the gym.

Parents are welcome to observe their child’s progress in the week before half term and the penultimate week of the term.

We are no longer registering pre-school children onto our waiting lists. Instead we are asking parents to enrol directly onto classes at the RGA centre in Kew.

Enrolment for classes starting in September 2010 will commence on Saturday 26th June at  9am for children who are currently on our waiting list and from 12.00am for any other children. It will continue Mon – Fri      9.30am – 5.00pm until classes are full.

Children can start our pre-school classes once they are 18 months old and continue until they start full-time school or are 5 years old. Please be aware we cannot guarantee a place in our general gym after-school programme for children who attended the pre-school programme.

To download a full timetable of classes for September, information about costs, term dates etc. and a membership form click >>here.

Please bring your completed membership form when you come to enrol although some will be available on the day.

You may also collect an info flyer from the office in advance

You will be able to enrol your own child/children and up to two other children provided you bring a membership form signed by their parent/guardian.

Payment will be by cheque, credit card or cash. For special rates please contact the administrator before the enrolment days.

Please note: Parking is limited in the area and for safety reasons parking will not be available at RGA on Sat 26th June.

At the moment our waiting list for children aged up to 6 years old is closed.

Registering for a class:

Children can be put on the waiting list for Romper classes at 15 months old. The current time before you are likely to be offered a place is between 3 and 9 months. 

Please note that unfortunately we cannot accommodate all our Richmond Romper Children in the Recreational classes when they go to full-time school. This is entirely due to available time/space. Romper classes run from 9.30 – 3.30 five days a week for children aged 2 – 5.  Recreational classes can only run from 4 – 8pm but need to accommodate children aged 5 – 15. The numbers just do not add up!
