Train or bus from Wimbledon to Kingston would be easier I'd think? There is a bus ( the K5) that goes from Morden to Kingston and would drop your daughter at the corner of Tudor Drive/Richmond Road but I think it takes at least an hour from Morden which would be too long. Then again a coach in traffic, who knows!

From previous years' list, there are few girls from Morden in TGS. May be, you all could join and organize coach.

Meantime, explore possibility of bus to Wimbledon and then bus or train to Kingston. Train would be lot quicker.

Train from Wimbledon to Kingston generally very reliable and runs every half hour. Then hop on a 65 bus or it's a 15 minute walk down the Richmond Road.

Train is every 15 mins not half hourly. Depending on where you are might be easier to get a bus to Raynes Park
Also there is 131 or 57 buses every few minutes but subject to traffic

Sorry, yes Snowdaddy is right: I was thinking only of the loop line that runs Waterloo - Richmond - Kingston - Wimbledon - Waterloo and back. Rail travel from Wimbledon to Kingston is even better than I remembered! The main thing is that there are good public transport links available.
