R.E. WEEK AT ST PETER’S SCHOOL & ST PETER’S CHURCH

Last week was RE Week at the Village School and our Church! As well as taking Assembly there, I welcomed and lead a session about the events of Holy Week and Easter, with each Year group, as they visit the Church.  Then in Holy Week itself, having learned about it all last week, the School will come to Church for a ‘Holy Week and Easter Service’ on Wed 28 Mar at 1000. I am thrilled and excited about the whole event: hope you are too! A lot of work, but it has all been worth it!
