Christmas Unwrapped 2025

7th Jan 2026​

 

In the last few weeks of 2025 the Christmas Unwrapped team which included Wheel Trust staff, volunteers and local church workers and partners, were able to visit 8 schools in the West End of Glasgow. They held 13 sessions and engaged with around 400 primary-aged children about the Christmas story and why Christians celebrate.

​

The sessions included stories, crafts, visual aids, role play and group discussion.

One of our volunteers said: “It was an amazing opportunity to share the birth of Jesus as a Christian openly with 66 children in a year group.”

 

One leader commented: “It helped build the relationship with the school” while another school was keen to book the team in to return for the Easter code later in the year.

​

Many teachers rated the workshops as “excellent” and were very impressed with the team and the engagement with the children.
