The Turf @ St John's is a community facility run by St John's Primary School.

Between the hours of 9am and 4.30pm the Turf is often used by the school, however external bookings may be available for the pitch and the indoor hall & activity area. From 5pm to 9.30pm every weekday and all across the weekend a variety of sessions take place or the turf is available for private hire at extremely competitive prices

Our pitch is ideal for junior football training & 7 v 7 matches, and adult social games with friends or colleagues.

Come and join us at Scotswood Gardens on Saturday afternoons for our family friendly and inclusive outdoor art, music, movement and exploring sessions! 

Sessions are free, but booking is essential. 

We're outside, so wrap up warm/bring sun cream!
