Hi everyone 😊

Colin is taking on a half marathon in honour of a very close friend of ours at Arch. He is Alan Ascott’s son. His dad was our Treasurer for many years and was one of the first members to set up arch and the village hall. He also helped out at the woodies and called the bingo A true advocate to the community

He’s hoping to raise £500 to help our Dibbers by buying a wooden pergola for outside our classroom — creating a lovely outdoor space for the children to enjoy and learn in.

Please take a moment to read his story and support if you can. Every little bit helps!

Hope you all have a lovely weekend 💛

Iʼm raising money to Help A community charity called ARCH (in Garston Liverpool) raise some money for their latest project which supports 4 to 11 olds. Support this JustGiving Crowdfunding Page.

Good morning everyone ❤️

I just want to say the biggest thank you to everyone who has booked into the grotto this year. It means the world to see so many children coming back year after year, growing up with this little piece of Christmas magic we create together.

What many don’t see is how much love goes into it behind the scenes. Mrs Christmas Tree is there weeks beforehand with her pencil, paper and glue gun, pouring her heart into every detail. Our volunteers give up their mornings, evenings, and weekends to take bookings and make sure everything runs smoothly. Mrs Claus brings her warmth and kindness aswell as her needle and cotton and and bows and her own glue gun. our very own Santa 🎅 who absolutely adores doing this every year shows up with more joy than we can describe.

This grotto has always been a community event, built by the community and for the community. And we truly want to keep it that way. But we can’t guarantee we’ll be able to run it every single year… so if you’ve been thinking about booking, please 🙏 bring your little ones along in these last two days. Your support genuinely keeps this going.

We still have availability for tonight from 6pm, and I’ll be on my phone all day if anyone needs me.

Let’s make these last sessions magical. ✨

With love,
Everyone at ARCH XX
