Pupils Shine at St Sampson’s Festive Carol Service

The children brought festive cheer to St Sampson’s Church in Cricklade as they gathered for their annual carol service.

The well-attended service featured a mix of festive readings, poems, hymns and songs, all led by the pupils. Their confident performances and clear enthusiasm helped create a warm and uplifting afternoon for everyone who came along.

It was fantastic to see so many parents, carers and members of the wider school community filling the pews. Their presence added to the sense of togetherness and made the service feel all the more special. This much-loved tradition continues to be a highlight in the school’s calendar — a moment to pause, reflect, and celebrate the season as a community.

The school offered sincere thanks to St Sampson’s Church for their continued support and for welcoming everyone so warmly into such a beautiful and historic setting.
