Our Church

Our church has been built since the Norman times. The Norman's finished building St Mary Magdalene in 1150 A.D.The west and east ends were lengthened a hundred years later. The sane glass window tells the story of the nativity. Every year we hold lots of plays and services in our church. Our church has had a change the change is the high sloping roof to the low sloping roof we see today.

Class 5 has made a recent visit to St Mary's to explore the different features of the church with our vicar Reverend Todd.

Every Sunday there is a Sunday school where children can learn all about Jesus and God through Bible stories.

If you haven't been in a ' church of England ' church before these are some of the objects you may find.
