Enter grandchild for various events (6-2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

goings-on

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'events' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'enter grandchild for various' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'enter' could be 'goin' (synonyms) and 'goin' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for goings-on that I've seen before include "Activities, esp. dubious ones" , "Suspect events or behaviour" , "Suspicious happenings" , "mischief" , "Hanky-panky" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
