December
Christmas Workshops for Schools
A shared celebration, told inclusively.
Christmas means different things in different classrooms — a religious celebration for some pupils, a cultural or family tradition for others. Our workshop is built to be genuinely inclusive: it explores the story and traditions of Christmas while making space for pupils of all backgrounds to take part and feel included.
What pupils will learn
- The origins of Christmas and how traditions have developed over time
- How Christmas is celebrated differently across cultures and countries
- The difference between the religious and cultural sides of the celebration
- Traditions pupils and their families may recognise from their own backgrounds
What's included
December
- Storytelling and discussion session, adapted for faith and non-faith schools
- A craft or music activity depending on your preference
- An inclusive "winter celebrations" framing option available on request
- Optional whole-school assembly format
Key dates
December
Christmas falls on 25 December every year. We recommend booking by mid-November, as December fills up quickly.
What schools say
Schools keep asking us back
“The facilitator arrived early, set up without any fuss, and had 180 children completely absorbed for the whole assembly. Staff were still talking about it in the staff room a week later.”
Rachel HughesDeputy Head, primary school in Gloucestershire “Honest, age-appropriate and properly researched. It gave our Year 5s real history rather than a token mention, and the follow-up resources meant we could keep going with it in class.”
Daniel OkaforYear 5 Teacher, primary school in Bristol “Booking took one email. Risk assessment and DBS certificates came through the same day, which made signing it off with our office genuinely painless.”
Sarah WhitfieldSchool Business Manager, Wiltshire “The colour session was the highlight of the whole term. Messy in the best way, and they had the playground spotless before the bell. Already booked for next year.”
Priya RamanAssistant Head, primary school in Swindon “We have children from nineteen different home languages and this session made every one of them feel seen. Parents commented on it at pick-up.”
Tom ElleryHeadteacher, primary school in Oxfordshire “Adapted brilliantly on the day when we had to move indoors. Calm, flexible, and clearly very used to working with large groups of excited children.”
Nicola BarrettKS1 Lead, primary school in Cheltenham
