We’ve got one more ask. On Saturday 7th December, Naburn are holding their Christmas Bazaar. There will be all sorts of fantastic things going on, including a chance to meet the man himself! The Friends of Naburn will have a stall and also be running our popular Christmas tombola. Please could you help us with this by donating some chocolate for the tombola. In return the children can come in their own clothes.

Donations should be brought into school on Friday 6th December, which is the day they can wear their own clothes, the more festive the better. We hope to see as many of you at the Christmas Bazaar as possible.

Kind regards The Friends of Naburn

It’s now all systems go for Christmas and we’ve got something for everyone over the next few weeks.

To start, we’ll have a stall at the Christmas Bazaar on Saturday 2nd December, at Naburn village hall. There will be a range of festive crafting for the children, as well as gingerbread men to decorate, for a small cost. If you have any little (or big) ones that enjoy getting covered in glitter then this will be ideal for them!

We’ll also be running a chocolate tombola, and for this last activity we need your help. We’d be very grateful for any chocolate donations please, which we will use for the tombola. These should be brought in on Thursday 30th November. In return your child can come to school in their own clothes on that day.

Tickets will soon go on sale for our Christmas raffle. We’ve secured some fantastic prizes from businesses across York, such as Mama Doreens, The Wizard Walk of York, Yorkshire Winter Wonderland, Northwood Fairy Trail and many, many more.

Full prize details will be announced over the next few weeks, but for information on who we’ve got prizes from so far please see our Christmas wreath.

We’re also planning another film night, this time with a Christmas theme. This will be held on Friday 15th December at 18:00. The film will be democratically picked by the children, which we’ll share with you as we get closer to the night. As always, there’ll be popcorn and juice, as well as a festive hot chocolate and gingerbread person. Everyone can come in their most festive PJs, armed with teddies, blankets and anything else to get cosy under the Christmas tree.

We’re really looking forward to embracing the festive season with you and hope you can join us at some of these eventsFriends of Naburn Primary School
