The St Edmund's German-style Christmas fair was held on Saturday 30th November.We wish to thank everyone involved in the Christmas fair for making it a successful event, Thanks especially go to the planning team and everyone who contributed in any way - providing cakes, items or manning the stalls -- and of course it would not have been a success if no-one had turned up - so thanks also go to everyone who joined us on the day - We hope everyone enjoyed the music, crafts, things to eat and drink etcThe light tunnel looked amazing once it got dark outside!The journey to Christmas has now well and truly begun.
