During December and January, we have had six delightful classes from Lydiard Park Academy (around 200 students) into St Mary’s as part of their RE curriculum.  I asked them to write a short evaluation / reflection on what they found interesting about the church. 

These are displayed on the children’s noticeboard in the Art Pew – please take time to read a selection of their comments.

They include –

The eagle symbolises spreading God’s word

I liked the glass windows.  I learned more about Christianity

I liked the stained windows and how they tell a story

I have learned all stained-glass windows have meanings
