“ All aboard ” Vision’s first movie night We will be hosting a Polar express themed movie night! At the vision hut on Tuesday 16th December Imagine stepping into the hut transformed into a magical winter wonderland. Soft twinkle lights glow like stars, casting a warm shimmer across blankets and pillows arranged to resemble seats on the Polar Express itself. A golden train ticket for each guest rests on the cushions, inviting everyone aboard for the night’s adventure. The smell of rich hot chocolate fills the room, steaming mugs topped with whipped cream, marshmallows, and a sprinkle of cocoa waiting on a small “refreshment” table. Next to them sits a bowl of popcorn, the perfect mix of cozy and classic movie-night comfort. As the movie begins, the sound of the train whistle echoes through the room, and everyone settles in, sipping their hot chocolate while the snowy scenes light up the screen. Wrapped in blankets, guests feel like they’re traveling right along with the children to the North Pole, carried away by the music, the warmth, and the magic of the moment. It’s a night filled with sparkle, comfort, and childlike wonder, a little holiday escape on the Polar Express. Tickets will be on sale soon. Wear pyjamas for an extra cosy feel. Under 10’s must be accompanied by an adult.
