To all Church Bulletin readers:
Our mid week Holy Communion services are held at St John the Baptist church, Bishopstone every Wednesday (except the 1st of the month) at 12.15pm.
There are currently restoration and repair works being carried out in Bishopstone church and on the discovery of rotten timbers, the works have been extended.
Therefore, our mid week Holy Communion services will be held at All Saints Church, Broad Chalke, each Wednesday at 12.15pm for the foreseeable future.
All are most welcome to attend a short Communion which lasts approx. 30 minutes and take the opportunity to relax, reflect and recharge our faith in our busy lives.
Kind regards
Emily

Sunday School 1909 & 1914

An extract from South Wilts Church Magazine February 1909:-

"The Sunday School Winter treat took place at the school on Wednesday, January 6th. After tea, to which the mothers of the children were also invited, games were indulged in, at the close of which presents were distributed to each child. Before giving away these presents the Vicar announced that next Christmas prizes would be given to those deserving of merit, and that to secure a prize a child would have to put in at least 45 attendances during the year."

An extract from South Wilts Church Magazine March 1909:-

"The Countess of Pembroke again very kindly presented three books as prizes for attendance and needlework in the school, these were supplemented by prizes most generously given by Mr Eastham. The following were the recipients of Lady Pembrokes's and Mr Eastham's prizes: Reginald Hitchings (for attendance), Lily Dimmer (for needlework) and Harry Poole, William Gurd, Ada Emm, Edith White (for attendance and conduct)."

An extract from South Wilts Church Magazine January 1914:-

"PRIZE GIVING. - At the closing of the school for the Christmas holidays the three special prizes so kindly given by the Lady Pembroke were awarded to Mollie Martin, Stanley Dowsett and James Emm. George Hargreave also received a prize for good attendance. Two other boys who had made a perfect attendance generously volunteered to waive their claim to these special prizes as they had previously won one. This is a kind of spirit we love to see and admire in the rising generation."

First World War History
