The children and young people of Holy Cross worked hard to put together a video telling the story of The Transfiguration and putting the story into the context of the journey to cross. Do have a watch along as you prepare for Easter.https://youtu.be/d44geXTk30Y?si=CQDO22a3slAjWPVA
A great afternoon of fierce competition through a wide range of games from the classics, scrabble and shove ha'penny to the stranger games such as Quirkle and Pandemonium. No generation seemed to win the night, quick thinking and experience were finely balanced.Why not come along next time, Sunday 17th March, 4pm.
The race is on to raise the funding for our new access project and so Hattie (7) lead the way by suggesting that the children organise a sponsored sleepover in the church.We had eight children aged 4-13 gathered to spend the night sleeping on the floor in the church. The chairs were moved aside as we all made up our beds for the night. It was great to use the church audio visual for our own private cinema style viewing before we went to sleep. There was lots of sleeping- against all the odds one might have said- and they didn't wake the vicar until after 7am, so it was a nice quiet start to the day.Amazingly the children did very well and raised over £400 for their sleep out- there was even talk of making it an annual event.
