This year we had our Christmas Dinner in Arkholme Village Hall as it has become too much of a squeeze to fit us all in the school hall over the last few years! A big thank you to Mel in our school kitchen for cooking a delicious Christmas dinner!

 

Arkholme’s first Procession Of Light was a fantastic evening, which was incredibly well attended despite the rain!

 

 

 

The lanterns looked magical leading the way up Main Street, stopping at various points along the way to hear the story of Christmas. Members of the school choir sung for us once we got back to school and the refreshments which were provided by Arkholme with Cawood Parish Council were enjoyed by all.

 

 

 

Thank you to everyone who helped, came along and took part in the event, it was a great event attended by the whole community.

This week, Leo asked Mrs Muckalt if he could add an event to the Spread the Happiness calendar, today was the day!

 

 

 

 

Leo and Joshua worked hard to make the event happen and lots of happiness was spread!
