Overview – see full details below
Christmas Productions:
We love Christmas at St Mark’s! The children will be performing, singing, and supporting our Christmas productions, and we’d love you to join us.
This year, we are using Zeffy, a free fundraising site, to allocate the tickets to you and there is a link to these booking pages below.
Each family will be allocated 2 tickets which can both be used for one performance or across the two performances. Parents are not expected to be at every performance and the children will be told this. Closer to the performance dates, we hope to be able to offer any spare tickets that become available.
We will be charging £1 per ticket to raise money for both the school and our long-term charity partner, The Mud House Children’s Foundation. The Mudhouse Foundation aims to help to improve the lives of Maasai children in rural Tanzania.
For KS2 children, it is expected that your child is at the evening performance.

Special Notice for KS2 Choir Members:
Our KS2 Choir have an integral role in the carol concerts and are due to perform at all 4 concerts regardless of which year group they are in. The dates for these are as follows:
- Monday 14th December 2pm Y5/6
- Monday 14th December 6pm Y3/4
- Tuesday 15th December 2pm Y3/4
- Tuesday 15th December 6pm Y5/6
For these concerts to be successful we hope that all KS2 choir members are able to attend both evening performances. You will still however, only be allocated 2 tickets. Parents are not expected to be at every performance and the children will be told this.
Children in choir will be wearing ties to perform in so they will need to wear a white shirt with a collar rather than their regular polo shirt. We will issue ties at the start of the each performance.
