Where is the disco and how do we get in?

The disco will be held in the Large Hall, with the tuck shop situated in the Small Hall. 

Disco for Reception & Y1: please enter through the KS1 door from the playground

Discos for Y2 & 3 and Y4,5 & 6: Please use the main school office door to enter the disco 

We will tick you off on entry.  Anyone who hasn't purchased a ticket in advance can do so on the way in after others have been signed in.

Please book your ticket in advance so we can get everyone in as quickly as possible.

Can I leave my child at the disco?

No, you must ensure your child arrives with a grown-up who will stay at the school for the duration of their disco. One adult could be the designated grown-up for several children - please organise this amongst yourselves. Children remain the responsibility of their designated grown-up.

**PLEASE NOTE: if any child is unsupervised, parents will be contacted and expected to collect that child immediately**

I'd like to help out - how will that work?

Firstly, thank you! You can sign up to help here

We need volunteers to help in the Small Hall, checking people in to the disco and serving on the tuck shop or bar, but also volunteers in the Large Hall, making sure everyone is happy in there and ensuring no-one leaves through the fire exits. These are all activities you can do whilst you are waiting for your child's disco to finish  😀

We're all in the same boat - we're all parents with children at the event who want to help out, and we club together to make it work. If your child needs you, of course you should be with your child, one of the other helpers can pick up what you were helping on.

Can siblings come along?

Yes, of course! There will be a quiet colouring corner for any siblings who don't want to join in the disco, or want to save their energy for their own disco time slot. Each child will only need one ticket. 

You do not need to buy a ticket for any pre-school siblings, but they are very welcome to come along and enjoy the fun.

Older siblings can only come on-site if they are with their parents.

Can my child use their phone at the disco?

We would appreciate it if children didn't bring their phones to the disco (or that phones are left with the child's supervising adult). This is for the safety and well-being of all children.

Can I buy a ticket on the door?

Tickets will be available on the door, but it's quicker for everyone to get in if you buy in advance - then all we'll need to do is tick you off the list and the dancing can start!

You used to be able to buy your tickets through ParentPay, but unfortunately this is no longer an option. Instead we are using a platform called Zeffy. Just follow this link to buy your tickets and give us the information requested (it'll all be used to help sign you in quickly on the day). 

Please note that the platform will ask you for a donation to support Zeffy - this is voluntary and you can change it to a £0 donation.

Can we wait at school for our disco time slot?

The school grounds will remain open as usual until about 4pm. If your child is in Years 4, 5 or 6 you will need to return to school when their disco starts at 5.30pm.

Will there be a non-uniform day at school on the day of the disco?

No, but don't worry, there'll be plenty of time to get changed if you'd like to. Fancy dress (or just fancy clothes) welcome. 

What will be stocked at the tuck shop?

Bags of crisps and sweets, fruit snacks, squash and fizzy pop will all be available to buy. Water will be readily available and will be free. We will also have some glow accessories available to buy.

For the grown ups there will be a bar serving wine and beer.
