A very merry Christmas from all the staff at Anston Greenlands. Wishing you all a very happy and healthy 2021.

We hope you enjoy the selection of Christmas songs and poetry performed by the Snowy Owls and Golden Eagles. We’re sure you will agree that we have a very talented group of actors and singers this year! Although the children put on a great show, we definitely missed our audience of parents, carers and friends.

Mr Wirth and Mrs Baird made it out of Vikingvasion with an impressive time of 55 minutes. We thought that it was very brave of them to tackle our challenging escape room, particularly as they had an audience of 60 children watching their every move through a webcam! Although we had some very experienced Games Masters waiting with walkie-talkies, they required very few clues.

The adults involved have been so impressed with the children’s creativity and problem solving that we have decided to keep all of the puzzles set up in the hope that we will be able to invite parents, carers and friends to have a go before the end of the year.

The Snowy Owls and Golden Eagles have had an amazing week trying to escape from the Viking Themed Escape Room which they created.
Despite having produced a highly challenging room, five of the ten groups managed to escape, with a time to beat of 55 minutes. The Year 5 children were very professional Games Masters for the Year 6 children and vice versa.
Although the children had a fantastic time, they definitely missed being able to share the experience with their friends and family.
We are looking forward to watching Mr Wirth and Mrs Baird trying to escape on Monday morning – the pressure is on!

The Golden Eagles and Snowy Owls had a fantastic time in Sheffield this week. Each child had the opportunity to experience an exciting escape room at Escape Sheffield. The adults were so impressed with the children’s teamwork, problem solving and resilience. Some children visited the ‘Witchcraft and Wizardry’ room and others had a go at the ‘221b Baker Street’ room. We are now buzzing with ideas for our own escape room, which brave parents, carers, family and friends will have the opportunity to try towards the end of term. Watch this space …
