Holiday Club Closing Ceremony

Sunday morning worship on the 3rd August was entitled ' The Champion's Challenge Closing Ceremony'. At the great sporting events the closing ceremony is usually a celebration of all that has taken place and this is what we tried to do. The whole service was a celebration of what took place during the week. The children shared with the congregation what they had been learning; about the various craft activities and the games; we heard a few of their jokes and letters. Each team paraded in with their team flag and the final act of celebration was the presentation of the medals. All the children received a medal because all had achieved a personal best in one of the activities. It was a good ending to another excellent Holiday Club week. One of the ways in which we know the week went well is because at the end the children were asking about next year's Holiday Club.
This year we are planning a re-union party in November for everyone who came along. Before that the leaders and the helpers will treat themselves to a celebratory meal out!
