Christmas Eve Crib Service & Nativity Play

• We are putting on an interactive Christmas Eve Nativity Play! Everyone can join in on the day.
• Before the service, find some clothes to dress up in for the characters in the story e.g. a tea towel for Joseph, some tinsel for the angel, a doll for Jesus etc. Please also bring your sheep, donkeys, camels, and any other animals for the stable.
• It will be great fun if we all join in/watch, as the story of what happened on the first Christmas night unfolds.

Christmas Day All Age Service

• Come and celebrate the birth of Jesus at the All Age Service, online @ 10.30am
• Join us online from 10.15am to allow everyone time to log in

On Tuesday 15th December the kitchen team will be cooking a Festive Lunch for the children to enjoy in their bubbles.  As our cook needs to know numbers, in order to have the correct amount of  ingredients, we ask that you book your child’s meal on ParentPay by the 8th December.  If your child would prefer the vegetarian option, please also email the office so we can advise the cook.  Please don’t hesitate to contact us should you have any difficulty in making the booking.
