You don't often see pirates watching country dancers, let alone see them in your parish church, but this was the scene at the Infants School leavers' service on Tuesday, to which I have already alluded in connection to the temperatures that day. It was the first time since 2019 that we were able to gather in our accustomed manner to celebrate the Year 2s passing out and onwards to their junior schools, with all the excitement and emotion that usually entails. The altar was piled with named picture bibles to be given out to the children. In previous years I and the head teacher have done this, but for the sake of speed we had two teachers helping us this time, which did cut proceedings down a bit though we all had to pirouette around one another as we negotiated our way around the children crowded on the stage. The farther candle you can see in the photo has been broken and reset, hence its wonky appearance. It looks straight from the front!
