Kids Christmas Cookie Bake Off

Parents - this one's for the kids... How to enter the Christmas Cookie Bake Off   1: Get your parents to help you bake or buy a batch of cookies - flavour, shape and style is your choice  -but no nuts please! 2: You need to decorate the cookies , and then choose the one you like the most. You can only submit one cookie per child for judging.  3: Wrap up your cookie in a special wrapping like cling film or tin foil. Add a sticker or piece of paper that has your Name, Year, Class and one of your parent's phone numbers on it and put it with your cookie! This is really important - that way we know who has entered the competition. 4: Then ask your parents to put the rest of the cookies into a box/tin with a list of ingredients inside, if homemade.  (maybe you can ask if you can have a little one before they box the rest up! Just to test they taste ok of course!) 5: On Friday 28 November , bring your specially wrapped cookie, and the box of extra cookies into schoo...

Calling our volunteers!

All good events need our amazing community to help us pull it off! And so the call goes out for volunteers.... Volunteer here:  http://volunteersignup.org/KWLDM Things to know:  We need your help for a one hour slot . The time goes really fast - especially when you sign up with friends! The kids Choir Performance is at 2.15- 2.30pm - just letting you know so you can avoid the first slot if your child will be singing their heart out! Please double check your tickets for Santa's Grotto or the Magic Show before you sign up Most people can now use Sum Up on their phone instead of using the little machine - we'll send you details once we confirm your volunteering slot - but it makes life sooo much easier! Tea Cups, Side Bar (Mulled Wine) and Games are outside - and although that sounds cold (bring gloves!) it can be a real joy to be out there as it gets VERY hot inside!  We would love help setting up and taking it all down afterwards - we'll make it fun!! Please let your Clas...

Katie will take you through all the steps needed to make a beautiful and stylish wreath to take home. All materials will be provided and the ticket price includes a drink on arrival, mince pie and nibbles.There will also be a paid bar on the night.  Last year's event proved to be a lovely, fun and festive evening, so round up a group of friends or come along on your own and join us for what promises to be another great evening!  Katie is giving her time for free, so all of the money we make from the event after paying for materials will go to the school.  Please note that this is an ADULT ONLY EVENT.
