The Toddler Christmas Star Church Service

This morning Mckee class, Carle class and Inkpen went to church to join up with the toddler groups for a special Christmas service.

We wore our crowns and took the sheep that we had made with us. In Mckee class we were really excited to find out that the theme of the service was the Christmas star, because that is what we put on our Christmas cards.

During the service we heard The Nativity story read, we sang lots of songs, we played musical instruments and,  according to the children, the best bit of all followed Mrs Hopking around the church.....she was dressed as a star and led us around the aisles in search of baby Jesus.

At the end of the service each child was given a heart to put on their Christmas tree, to remind them that Jesus loves them. The adults were not forgotten and were given a tea light and holder with the message that Jesus is the Light of the world and a request to light it on His birthday.

It was, as always a fun, lively and noisy service with an important message and we were thrilled to be invited once again.
