St Nicolas Church Visits

What a wonderful year we have had, growing our strong bond between school and church. The children of St Nicolas have visited over the Summer term and have learnt why the church is such a special place. We have also performed at St Nicolas church for Harvest, Christmas, Easter and we were thrilled to have returned to the church for our Year 6 Leaver’s service. Reverend Chris has been coming into school throughout the year, leading collective worship and meeting our school community. We are thankful for all the support the church has given us and look forward to the next academic year as we continue to flourish together.
