Christmas Events

Dear Parents / Carers,

The Christmas festivities are well underway with all sorts of songs and performances being rehearsed.

Space has always been an issue for us, with a hall that is way too small for a full capacity school.

We request that parents, where absolutely possible do not bring children to the carol concert and other Christmas events. We struggle to find space for push chairs and know that young children can distract the performers and hence parents have to be asked to leave the hall with them.

We are offering a crèche service this time, but due to staffing issues, we can only accommodate a small number of children for those who have no other option other than to bring them. Please pre arrange this before the event by calling the office.

There will be no crèche provision at Rock church for the reception Christmas play on Tuesday 10th December due to limited space. Please also be advised there is no parking near Rock church.

We look forward to welcoming you to our events and thank you for your support.

Regards,

Miss Cook
