Advent 2025
As we journey towards Christmas this Advent season, we invite your school to join us in Follow the Star: Calm and Bright drawing on the world-famous carol, Silent Night.
We’ll hear from 4 main characters in Luke’s account of the Christmas story, Angel Gabriel, Joseph, a shepherd and Mary. As we listen to their stories, we’ll think about how they experienced ‘All is calm, all is bright’, the message their story brings of Jesus’ birth and what those messages might mean for us today. What actions could we take to bring calmness and brightness to our world?
