Afternoon everyone. The First School have asked us to let you all know that, despite their best efforts, there may be a 'clash' of school Christmas production finishing times tonight. First School have their Christmas/Nativity Service and Bredon Hill Academy's have their Year 6 production. Both finish at 7pm.
However, First School will ask parents to arrive at 7:15pm to collect children in an effort to minimise traffic disruption in the village. They will also ask parents to navigate through the village with consideration.
First School send their apologies.
Carol singing last night was a great success. Around 30 adults, children and a dog or two sang their way round the village on a cold and nearly frosty night. All the traditional carols were sung to the kind souls who opened their front doors and braved the chilly temperatures to listen. Hamish Sanger Davies was a brilliant accompanist on his clarinet; so a big thank you to him and also to Ed and Vicky at The Star, who kindly provided warm mince pies in return for a carol or two (in the warmth at last!). Thanks also to Ali Stephenson and Charles Archer for organising it. We hope to see more singers next year; get your lanterns ready!
