For 2018’s Christmas lights we would like unusual plants. These can be real plants or fantasy ones, your designs will be made up by our team and found growing on Peel Street over Christmas.
Draw your design using the form found here or use a plain piece of A4 paper. The designs need to be handed in at Marsden Library or dropped off at school during November (the earlier in the month the better). We love designs from adults as well as children.

Our favourite designs will be made up on giant metal frames and installed on Peel Street. The designs need to be handed in at Marsden Library or dropped off at school during November (the earlier the better). We love designs from adults as well as children.

Winter Haiku – taken from http://thoughtcatalog.com/kim-quindlen/2015/01/23-seriously-deep-haikus-that-will-reflect-your-winter-depression/
For this years Christmas lights 9 new light features were made up and 12 existing ones were fixed and reused. the centre piece was a 15ft winter Haiku. The Christmas toilet was back, this time with a circling of bog rolls.
The children from Marsden Junior School did designs for Christmas stickmen, of these there were 3 winning designs that got made into lights, these were:
- Sticklady playing a Fiddle by Daisy from MJS
- Stickman by Will Pearson from year 3 MJS
- Gingerbread Man (apologies – we have now lost the original design and are not sure which child did this)
Special thanks to the Cuckoo’s Nest, Yorkshire Avalanche Dodgers and Reliance Garage for their large donations.
