Make it merry with cocoa and creativity

On the eleventh day of Christmas, Reslife gave to me, hot chocolate and paperchain making

Take a break from the winter hustle and join us for a cozy afternoon of creativity and comfort. We’ll be making colorful paperchains to bring a festive touch to your space, and you can build your perfect drink at our Hot Chocolate Bar. Think marshmallows, whipped cream, and all the toppings you love.

We’ll have vegan and non-vegan hot chocolate options, so everyone can enjoy a cup of festive warmth.

Come along, relax, and enjoy some holiday cheer with fellow students. No need to bring anything but yourself, everything else is on us!

Polden Commons is located on the ground floor of Polden B Block, next to the Polden Cafe. The room is fully accessible with steps free access and a range of both booth and table seats available. There are accessible toilets located on the same floor.

ResLife Ambassadors will be there to welcome you – you’ll be able to recognise them in their light blue RLA hoodies and t-shirts with the ResLife logo on.

There will be some unstructured time while waiting for people to arrive which gives you the chance to introduce yourself, meet new people if you want to, and settle in. If you need some help with this, for example, if you arrive on your own, our ResLife Ambassadors will happily help introduce you to others.

All materials for the paperchain craft will be provided for you. All you need to bring is yourself.

Our hot chocolate bar will provide a range of toppings and there will be vegan and non vegan options available.
