Virgin Radio UK and Sky Cinema 12 Schools of Christmas…

 

Christmas is coming to Sky Cinema, and The Chris Evans Breakfast Show on Virgin Radio could be coming to your school for a very special live broadcast on 20th December, the last Friday before Christmas!

Virgin Radio is offering the chance to win a Sky Cinema Christmas for your school, including a pop-up cinema screen, hot food and drink stands, a movie premiere-style red carpet and all of the ingredients needed for a guaranteed White Christmas.

Not only that, but The Chris Evans Breakfast Show will come along too for a special live broadcast on the last day of term!

Virgin Radio’s Chris Evans comments: “Christmas has come early thanks to our friends at Sky Cinema! Calling all teachers - we want to hear your amazing school groups. The 12 best entries will be played on my show, and one overall winner will be visited by Sky Cinema and the Virgin Radio Breakfast team. Can’t wait to hear your school group - enter now and good luck!”

If you're a teacher you can nominate your school to take part in our 12 Schools Of Christmas competition.

Here's how it works...

 

  • Get your school group together to record a Christmas song.
  • Send us a recording of it around 1 minute long using the form at virginradio.co.uk
  • Let us know who at the school can approve your application (and give us permission to broadcast the show from there if you win!) along with the other required information
  •  We'll then create a shortlist of the 12 best entries
  • The 12 songs from the shortlisted schools will be played on The Chris Evans Breakfast Show with Sky over the course of a week, and Chris and his team will judge them on the following criteria: enthusiasm, creativity, collective diction, Christmassy-ness and cute factor!
  • The highest scoring school will win, and we'll take the show there for a special live broadcast on the last day of term
  • In addition, all 12 finalists will receive a fantastic book bundle from HarperCollins and the opportunity to visit Sky Academy Studios, where students can take the reins to produce their own news report, trailer or vlog. Find out more here.

 

It’s all thanks to Sky Cinema, where you can discover a new premiere every day and over 1000 movies on demand. This Christmas they have an unbelievable line up, from recent blockbusters like Avengers: Endgame and Mary Queen of Scots, to Christmas classics like The Holiday and A Muppets Christmas Carol.
