Spooky Disco
2024-10-24 16:15 - 19:00 UTC
We will be hosting two Spooktastic Halloween Discos on Thursday 24th October 2024.

Tickets come with a suggested donation of £2.50 each (or more if you’re able) and can be bought via the links below. All children and adults attending should buy a ticket in advance as the discos are likely to sell out and we will need to keep within the hall capacity.

There will be a disco with music in the main hall, and we will run a quiet craft zone in the Library for those who prefer a more chilled out vibe.

All money raised will go to Friends of Larkrise, and there will be hot food available to buy.

Can you help?

If you are able to help out with set-up, during a disco or with clear up please sign up to volunteer here: https://signup.com/mobileweb/2.0/vspot.html?activitykey=57330376029#choose_jobs_page (you could team up with another family to share a shift/childcare)

Cake donations to sell at the disco would be greatly appreciated. Please bring them to the School Office on Thursday 24th October.

The Lower School Disco will happen between 4:15 pm and 5:15 pm

This disco will be for children in the Nursery up to and including Year 2. Children must be accompanied by an adult, and adults and children must buy a ticket in advance. This is to ensure that numbers do not go over the capacity of the school hall.

There are 200 tickets available, and they are limited to 2 per family (you may be able to swap with other families if you have multiple children in different years).

Book your tickets here.

The Upper School Disco will happen between 5:30 pm and 7:00 pm

This disco will be for children in Year 3 and above. Children in Years 3 and 4 must be accompanied by an adult, and adults and children must buy a ticket in advance. This is to ensure that numbers do not go over the capacity of the school hall.

There are 200 tickets available, and they are limited to 2 per family (you may be able to swap with other families if you have multiple children in different years).
