SUNDAY CLUB

Sunday Club meets in the parish rooms (adjoining the church) at 10.25 am and lasts for about forty minutes, the children then join the congregation in church.  All children are very welcome to join the Sunday Club; under school age children need to be accompanied by an adult.  The teachers use a varied programme of work and it is tailored to suit all ages.

 

Many of the children also belong to the junior choir, help as servers, and read lessons in church.  All are encouraged to join in.

 

Please contact Mrs Goodrich or the parish office if you would like more information.

 

A SHORT HISTORY OF THE CHURCH

 

All Saints Church built by Dame Rhoda Elton and Sir Arthur Hallam Elton, who endowed it, was consecrated on 1st November 1860.  The architect, CE Giles of Taunton, designed a simple cruciform structure with chancel, nave, north and south transepts, and a tower and spire over the crossing.  Superbly sited at the foot of Court Hill in a secluded and tranquil valley, the church clock a landmark, and the peal of its bells a familiar sound throughout the parish.  The church is simple in ground plan but astonishingly rich in imagery.  There are examples of the work of James Powell, William Wailes, John Hardman, Clayton and Bell, Heaton Butler and Bayne, Hardman, Sir Edmund Elton, Sir John Ninian Comper.  (If you would like more information on the history and works of the church please contact the Parish Office)
