The Church is not the building, it is not the services; but the Body of Christ are the people of God. Our school curriculum has placed great emphasis on children asking good questions and exploring their learning further. We also enjoy outdoor learning on The Croft on the Heath - this is also a place for our community to enjoy too. Please visit our Facebook page....
