Parents & carers! You might want to keep KS1 kids’ schedules free after school on April 1st for our next event - top secret until tickets go on sale but a change from a Disco 🤐

KS2 kids? It’s April 3rd for them, also straight from school.

Children who don’t appreciate Disco vibes might enjoy this…
