The clocks are about to go back, winter is coming and yet – Hurray! – the annual Garvald Christmas Dinner to look forward to. As usual it will take place on the first Thursday in December (the 4th) at 7pm. Look out for the invitations coming through your letter-boxes very soon.

This is a wonderful opportunity for any teenagers out there to earn some Christmas cash by helping with the serving and washing-up. If you’re interested you can speak to Trudi at Carfrae Farm Shop or Caroline at The Old Schoolhouse. We would love to get you involved.

Children’s Halloween Party – Friday 31st October

Garvald Village Hall is booked for Friday 31st October, between 5.30 – 7pm, for the Children’s Halloween Party.
The plan is to have a similar set up to last year: guising followed by a party.
Bringing plates of food so there’s something savoury for kids to eat after guising seemed to work really well last year, so please bring a plate along if you are able to. It would be really helpful if any allergens could be indicated, where possible, and be mindful of children’s allergies.
We’ll be looking for volunteers to help with set up, clear up and on the night so please use the contact form, below, to indicate if you are able to help out at all.

    Garvald and Morham Children’s Christmas Party 2025 – Save the Date!

    This year’s children’s Christmas party will be on Sunday 7th December from 2-4pm.

    After the last couple of year’s success, the ceilidh lady and her accordionist will return once more!

    As per last year we will break for a children’s tea and again, if all parents could bring a plate of something to contribute to this, that would be wonderful.

    Santa has been invited and has promised to be there so the plan again will be for parents to secretly bring a small, wrapped present (suggested around the £5-10 mark) labelled with their child’s name.

    As ever we will be grateful for help setting up in the morning and clearing up after from those who are able.

    More info to come on Garvald.org as we get nearer the time.

    Garvald Hogmanay Hoolie

    The Garvald Hogmanay Hoolie is on!  We are excited to confirm that Clappy Doo Ceilidh Band will return to Garvald Village Hall on 31st December 2025.

    While we haven’t yet found new organisers to take the reins, we’re keeping the spirit alive with a bring-your-own-food celebration this year (as well as BYOB).  Pack your favourite snacks, bring your dancing shoes and come for a fun, informal evening with friends!  Further details and ticket info to follow in November.

    Fancy helping this year or interested in helping to shape future Hogmanay events?  We’d love to hear from you.  It’s a brilliant way to get involved in the community, meet lovely people and keep the tradition thriving.  Please get in touch using the contact form.
