From Nursery to Year 6, our children have been running to encourage donations for St John's Hospice. Many families have donated online and we have received over £600 in donations in cash (and still counting). The conditions we challenging but we weren't deterred as this is such a good cause. We ran remembering those experiencing cancer, supporting those with cancer, cancer survivor's and those who have lost their life to cancer. St Mary's children you are amazing! The 2024 Reindeer Run has certainly been a memory maker! P.S. there are still a fewer muddy trainers at school to be collected! Until next year....

Advent Sunday 3 - Joy. The joy that flooded the hearts of the shepherds, the angels, the wise men, the hosts of heaven, and Mary and Joseph is the joy that still has the power to overwhelm our hearts with rejoicing.
