Attention Readers & Ministers: Join Our New WhatsApp Rota Groups

If you are a new Minister training on 25th July, please also join your relevant group.

 

From 1st August Leanne Heseltine will be co-ordinating the rotas. We are launching dedicated WhatsApp groups for St Godric's and St Joseph's to make organising weekend rotas and scheduling swaps quick and easy. If you do not have the app yet you can download it from the App store on iPhone and the Play store on Android.

A Wednesday weekly Summer Club will take place at St Joseph’s for the six weeks of the school summer holidays from 12.30-2pm, commencing on Wednesday, 22nd July until Wednesday, 26th August.

 

It’s an opportunity for all ages to socialise, and a light lunch will be available for £3.50.

St. Leonard’s School entrance and car park is accessed via the residential estate behind the school itself.
