The winter season is here, and we want to bring some festive spirit to campus as we run up to the Christmas break. So we will be running lots of fun events and activities throughout December, from parent and children craft & play days and foodbank collections to special club nights and evening entertainment.
We know the cost of living crisis is affecting so many people, and we also know how important it is for us all to do our bit to protect the environment. That's why this year's festive theme is 'Have yourself an affordable and sustainable merry little Christmas.'
All our events are FREE to attend and will showcase ways to keep Christmas affordable and sustainable this year.
