The leavers' service brought this very busy term and year to a close. The service celebrated the year and the successes of our oldest children who will be moving on to Uffculme Senior school in the new academic year. We also said farewell to a few children moving to different schools in the county. The year six children made us laugh and smile as they talked about their memories of Kentisbeare and we sang joyfully songs that they had learnt over the years. They enthralled us with their musical piece 'Hoppipola'which they repeated to rapturous applause. The congregation fell silent at the end of the service after watching the photo and video montage put together by Mr White and there was not a dry eye in the church.



I am sure you will all join me in wishing Mr White and his bride to be, Celine all the best for their forthcoming wedding.



Thank you all for your ongoing support. Have a good Summer break and we look forward to seeing you all in September.
