On Thursday 27th June, our Year 6 went to Crowborough for the Diocese of Chichester Leavers’ Service.
Noah has kindly written up the event for our Newsletter:
We left lovely Lilac and went in our Mum’s and Dad’s cars to be dropped at The Green, a field just outside the church with sparsely placed trees. We all met up together and had lunch.
Twenty minutes later we went into the breath taking church. Once we were settled, the parade started with Noah holding the candle and Finlay and Jared holding the school banner. On making it to the front we were welcomed by the Bishop and placed the items to their designated places before sitting back down ready for the service to begin.Children from East Hoathly started us off with a prayer and a reading, following which we sang and had a very fun talk from the Bishop about peace. There were several songs and it was interesting that different schools knew different versions of the same ones!
The service finished with a procession walking back through the church which included Noah, Finlay and Jared and on leaving the church Mrs Mandy gave us all bibles, took a picture and then we went home.
