We do love Christmas at Fairlight.

December is a busy time for us with lots of events such as our Christmas performances, Winter Fair, Festive Jumper days, Christmas Dinner Day and hamper collections.

Last Christmas we held our very first Lapland Round the Level which was a great success!

CHRISTMAS AT ST MARTINS CHURCH

Many of our Christmas events and shows are held at St Martin's Church.

We use this amazing venue as it allows us to hold just one event and be able to invite everyone in the family. We would never be able to do this if we did the show in the hall. We would have to do tickets and restrict numbers etc. All of which doesn't feel very Chrsitmassy.

It does however mean we only get one practise beforehand in the venue and end up using a range of equipment and systems. Parents have offered to play music and support with this (thank you for that) however we like to keep it simple and rustic and involve the children in different roles. 

We are joined by children and families who come from a range of backgrounds and religions who are made extremely welcome at St Martins (many other faiths actually worship in the church) however we are aware that some do not want to attend.

If you do not want your child to attend the Christmas events in St Martins Church on religious grounds then please speak to your child's classteacher and inform them of your reasons.

As I have said all faiths and all children are welcome to join us and often do.
