Are you looking for a way to bring the whole-school together, for an action-packed, fun-filled, festive day this December? Then look no further as we can bring The Big Christmas Day to your school! Our Big Christmas Day is a brilliant and cost-effective alternative to the Christmas pantomime, whilst still giving children an extra special treat this Xmas. Lots of schools fund this day via the PTA or parent/carer donations. The cost of the day is £500 plus VAT, which includes two As Creatives practitioners, each sharing a different activity with every class in the school over the course of the day!

You can choose one programme from Selection Box A – for the whole school. And you can choose one programme from Selection Box B – for a limited number of classes. Plus, you will also get the Christmas Crackers Maths teaching pack which includes Maths challenges for every year group from EYFS - Year 6.

  “Y4 had a super poetry and drama workshop earlier this week with Jo. They shared what they knew about figurative language, did some choral performance and created a Christmas clerihew poem. Perhaps the favourite activity was the human sculpture game though." Hunts Cross Primary "The children thoroughly enjoyed their day and particularly loved performing at the beginning and end with the whole school. The students gained further understanding of how to use their ideas to write poetry, as well as a look at performing poetry. . It was great to be able to involve the whole school in a workshop day all the way from EYFS and bring the children together to work collaboratively."  Northway Primary   “The children and staff thoroughly enjoyed the day. Although this isn’t the first time Springwell has used your services, it is personally my first experience and I can see why the staff have been so complementary. I really look forward to working with you again in the near future and will be sure to pass on my recommendation”  Springwell Park Primary School   “I have had As Creatives coming into my school for many years and they are truly amazing! The quality of their work is second to none. They are my go to provider for any new topic we are teaching!” Holy Spirit Catholic Primary School   Full workshops descriptions can be found on our website www.ascreatives.com/christmas-workshops/ 500.00 300 As Creatives
