Messy Church is restarting on Sunday 10th October at the Baptist chapel in Stoke St Gregory. It starts with breakfast at 10am. Then there will be a time of crafts and activities for all ages, followed by our celebration time which includes a Bible story and some songs.

Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child
(21.09.21)
Sonya at the Baptist Church is coming into school to talk to our children about the possibility of making shoe boxes for the charity Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child. To find out more about the charity, please click here.
If you would like to do this as an activity with your child/children, there are 2 options. The first is to pack a physical shoebox. (They will need to be at the Baptist chapel by 14th November.) Details can be found by clicking here.
The second option is to pack a shoebox online by going to https://shoeboxonline.samaritans-purse.org.uk/ Scroll down the page and click 'Pack your shoebox.')
Open the Book (30.6.2021)
Thank you to the group from St Gregory’s Church who came into school this week to deliver our next ‘Open the Book’ assembly. The weather was kind and resulted in us being able to be all together in our bubbles outside. Our Year 6s took an active part in proceedings and, as ever, shared their brilliant personalities within their contributions for the assembly.
The story this week was about the importance of humility – a hard concept to grasp but an important one. Our children understood how Peter and John, two brothers who were disciples of Jesus, wanted to be the most important and the best and be given the highest positions of rank. This is a concept our children can understand as it is a natural part of their own development. It naturally helps our children to realise the importance of considering others which, as we all know is a life-long learning curve.
Kingfisher Class created 3D models of the Easter story. Can you put them in chronological order? (April 2021)
