Christingle This Sunday – Don’t forget, it is the Christingle at St Mary’s Church this weekend. We have had a great response and look forward to seeing as many children from the school there as possible. It starts at 10am. 

Follow The Star to St Mary’s Church - Not to be missed is this year’s theme at St. Mary’s Bentley! There are thousands of lights, a forest, a village scene and two water features, as well as Christmas Carols played from the tower. The focal point will be the star over the manger. Parking and refreshments are available. Don’t miss this best decorated church in Suffolk - It’s truly amazing.

Performance Tickets – Thank you to those families who have got their requests in already; if you haven’t replied yet, please let us know 3^rd December (this coming Tuesday) how many you would ideally like. If we do not hear from you, we will assume you do not want any tickets.
