UPDATE: Here’s a brief video to show you what we got up to at Holiday Club this year – what a wonderful, wonderful week!
Children of primary school age are invited to join us for a week of Holiday Club fun at the beginning of the summer holidays.
Holiday Club will run from Monday 25th – Friday 29th July, 9.30am – 1.00pm each day, with a launch service at 11.00am on Sunday 24th July.
Our theme is ‘Wonder Zone’, encouraging children to explore the wonders of the world, and discovering the God behind all of it. We will experience the fun of discovery, explore the wonders of the universe, investigate light and colour, be awed by the diversity of the natural world and encounter robots and artificial intelligence. Each day children will rotate in their groups between sports and outdoor games, the craft tent, thinking sessions and some fun one-off activities.
This is open to children currently in Reception through to Year 6. The cost is £45 per child, with a sibling discount for more than one child of £40. If your child would like to attend but the cost will be prohibitive please let us know – your request will be treated confidentially.
Children will need a packed lunch each day, sensible footwear and clothes suitable for the weather.
Sorry, registrations for Holiday Club are now closed.
If you have any queries about Holiday Club please contact Ailsa, or any problems with the online forms or payment please contact Kate.
On Sunday 15 May it was announced that Will has been appointed as Canon for Mission and Pastoral Care at St Albans Cathedral.
This is a new and exciting full-time position for him but it will sadly mean that he will be leaving St Mary’s and Redbourn after almost 16 years here among us. It is expected that there will be a leaving service for Will in late July and he will take up his new position at the Cathedral in September.
Will commented: “It is with a whole range of emotions that I share this news. It is really exciting and a great honour to have been appointed and I look forward very much to working with the Dean and Chapter and the wider Abbey community in the work that God has in store for us together.
But in doing so, I must take my leave of a church family and a village that have been immensely special, supportive and loving, not just to me, but to us all as a family. Thank you for all that we have shared in together which I will always be profoundly grateful for. We are not going far and I hope that there will good opportunities from time to time to catch up and hear all the latest news.
Please be assured for my prayers for all of you in Redbourn as I ask for your prayers for me, Claire, Olivia and Darcy as we make our plans and preparations to move.”
