BUILDINGS UPDATE ST. AIDAN’S
On 17th November, plans for the
proposed development of
St. Aidan’s Church and Hall will be
on display.
As advised previously, the PCC has
come up with proposals to replace
the existing roof of St Aidan’s
Church, re-order the existing
building internally to include a cafe
area and toilets, and to renovate
the external appearance of the
church building.
Also, it is hoped that improvements
to the Church Hall kitchen and
toilets, as well as the linkage
between the church and the hall
would be part of the restoration
and renovation of St. Aidan’s.
Please view and comment on the
plans, which we hope will stimulate
comment and vision.
Once final agreement is reached on
the plans the relevant permissions
will be sought, along with the
finances, to enable St Aidan’s to be
a worship and outreach centre for
the whole community.
ST. GEORGE’S SCHOOL
report written by
Sandra Adams
With half term upon us, the
number of extra activities in which
the children have participated,
along with their normal school
work, are amazing. A newly formed
PTA held a disco for the children,
which made a profit of £200, which
will assist in the purchase of
furniture for Early Years.
Our Harvest Festival, well attended
by parents, was held in Church, all
produce given was taken to the
Food Bank by Mrs. Albery, and our
School Council. The School Council
intends to revisit the Food Bank to
see how all the food is distributed.
Trips have been made in the School
Mini Bus, with staff and children,
from years 3, 5 and 6 going to
Abbot’s Wood, where blackberries
were picked, and later were made
by the children into crumpets and
blackberry crumble. Year 2 made a
visit to St. George’s Church,
taking photos and making drawings
of the surroundings. Our Vicar
Gary, visits School often, for assemblies and last week children from
year 1, took part in a mock
Baptism. Children and staff will be
wearing pink on 21st October, for
Breast Cancer research.
