Children’s Deanery Event – this Saturday - 19th October 2013, 2.00 – 4.30 pm at St
Michael’s Church. The title of this day
is “Shake Rattle and Roll” – there’ll be singing, activities (including mosaic,
making wind chimes, decorating biscuits…!)
Churchyard work party – 2nd
November from 10.00 – 4.00 pm. The day will include
activities such as clearing invasive plants, clearing graves and litter
picking, this is to enable us to survey the churchyard and decide on how
best to manage the beautiful space we have.
We also want to start thinking how best
to manage the memorial garden and improve the area as a place to sit and
reflect.
This is our last clearance event of the
year and we are hoping to finish off the day with a bonfire and - weather permitting - some jacket potatoes and a
drink. As before, no tools
are required – please just come along.
