Everyone is invited to bring their own meals, along with drinks and games, to fully enjoy this day outdoors.
A Moment of Sharing and Connection
The back-to-school picnic is a golden opportunity to strengthen bonds within the community, welcome newcomers, and reconnect with those you haven’t seen in a while. It’s also an excellent opportunity for parents to meet teachers and other parents before the school year begins.
Practical Tips

Bring a blanket or mat: The ground at Hampstead Heath is perfect for sitting, but a blanket will make the experience even more comfortable.

Be mindful of the environment: Hampstead Heath is a natural gem, so please make sure to take all your trash with you and follow recycling guidelines.
Use public transport: Parking around the park is limited. The nearest tube stations are Hampstead and Gospel Oak, and several bus lines serve the area.
