Congratulations to our Easter Tombola Winners!

 A parishioner from Holy Trinity shared her experiences about the challenge faced by primary school pupils in South Sudan. It costs families £50 a year to send their child to school. The Worship Warriors decided to sponsor a child each year of their education. Our Worship Warriors are delighted to share that the Easter Tombola raised the £50 needed to sponsor a pupil so they can attend school this academic year. 

Thank you to Alannah, one of the staff members who donated four exciting Easter hampers. 

Y2's fabulous few weeks of dance culminated in them performing their compositions for their parents and families this morning!

Last week, the children visited Outwood Secondary School to perform, along with several other local schools, in a mass participation dance event. They had practised and perfected their dances, and organised their costumes so they looked just the part!

This morning, the children were slightly nervous to be performing in front of a crowd full of parents, families and friends, but they did amazingly well, and we were so proud of them. The joy was something really quite special!

On Thursday afternoon, Susannah Lloyd, author of books including 'Oh Monty!' and 'Who Ate Steve?' introduced us to her new book, 'Badgers Are Go'. The children loved joining in with the fabulous fun and frolics and came away full of love for a newly discovered author.

Some of our children had borrowed one of Susannah's books from Ripon Library and were so excited to have met her, and received their own signed copy of her new book. 

If you would like to take advantage of a reduced price offer to buy Susannah's books, The Little Ripon Bookshop have them available here or in their beautiful shop. 

Odd Socks Day marks the start of Anti-Bullying Week. We wore odd socks to celebrate to encourage everyone to express themselves and celebrate their individuality and what makes us all unique!
