Advent Story Bags
During advent each class will have an advent story bag. In the bag there will be a Christmas story, special exercise book, a candle and a advent prayer. The bag will be passed around the children, we ask that you read the story and the prayer with your child and get them to draw/write something about how it made them think of advent. We hope this will be a way of you remembering the season of advent with your family.
