Come and join the celebration

Christmas is nearly here and the it is the very last day of term, and so there was a real buzz of excitement as the whole of St James's school - KS1 downstairs, KS2 in the galleries - came to church this morning for the end of term Christmas service.

Two of the older children read from
the Bible, Penny spoke about the angels bringing the message of God's love for the world, and we sang one more time some favourites: It was on a starry night; Come and join the celebration; Away in a manger and Hark the Herald.

After the service we visited all the classes on both school sites with invitations (right) for the children's Christingle Service in the church on Christmas Eve at 5pm, a short (30 min) service with children particularly in mind, but loved by all ages.

It's been a good term. Everyone has worked very hard and now .... a well-deserved rest for everyone. So Happy Christmas everyone at St James's School.
