There’s only three weeks to go before our Summer 2024 Holiday Club – Wonder Zone !
Wonder Zone is for children aged 5 – 11 and lasts 2 hours each morning for the three days Mon 19th – Wed 21st August. We’ll have plenty of fun and games, craft & making, songs, science experiments and more.
There is still room for a few more children – but we ask that you sign up sooner rather than later so we can ensure we have enough of the items we’ll need for the fun time we’re planning.
The cost is £10 per child for the three days, which covers refreshments and materials (there is a reduction for additional children in the same family).

Following the success of previous years, during the Summer Holidays we will again be holding our Sunday Ten O’clock Service outdoors (weather permitting) – that is Sunday 28th July – 1st Sept inclusive. The service will include Communion on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month (i.e. August 4th, 18th & Sept 1st)
You may wish to bring a comfortable chair or rug as well as appropriate clothing. After the service, refreshments will be served in the hall.
Our theme this year is “Meals with Jesus”, looking at a different bible passage each week.
We’d love you to join us. Families are very welcome!
A reminder that Crafty Space is meeting a week earlier than usual – on Saturday 6th July. This is our last meeting until September 14th.
Crafty Space is a place and a time when a group of crafters meet together one Saturday a month in St Catherine’s Hall. Everyone is welcome.
They provide space, tables, power, tea/coffee & cake. All you do is bring along those craft projects you’ve always meant to find time to do!
All they ask is a donation of around £1.50 per person, per hour to cover hall costs and refreshments. They can accept card payments.
They also have a well-stocked swap box in which you are very welcome to search!
Café Siena is open on Election Day Thursday July 4th between 10am-2pm.

Coffee and homemade cakes as usual! Hope to see you there!
