David’s Cwtch

Missio group voted to buy a bench where we could sit, find some peace, pray and remember David. You will remember that Maria and Alex Ejimofor, tragically lost thier son in the Summer of 2023. After a vote Missio have chosen the style of bench which we have now bought. Mr Coughlin (Andrew the Fixer) has put it together. Today we have placed the bench in the sunniest spot in the front playground. It is in a space for all to use.

Could you help develop this quiet space?

Children have decided that it would look more inviting with more pots of plants around it. Missio wondered whether our families would like to get involved.

Do you have any spare pots and plants that you would like to donate to add to David’s Cwtch? Please let Ms Beaumont know and send them in.
