All Saints', Ockham
with St Michael's Chapel, Downside
FAMILIES
We have a Family Service on the first Sunday of the month at All Saints', Ockham, in which children can take part. We have a Pet service every summer, held outside in the car park (weather permitting) to which children and invited to bring their pets. We have dogs, cats, rabbits, tortoises, ponies and many others. On Christmas Eve we have a Crib Service at St Michael's Chapel, Downside, which is always wonderfully crowded and tells young children the Christmas story. Children also take part in our Eco-Church activities.
ST MATTHEW'S CofE INFANT SCHOOL
St Matthew's School, overlooking the green at Downside, was graded 'outstanding' in all respects by Ofsted in its latest report and has been given an excellent rating by SIAMS. Revd Elisabeth Burke is chaplain to the school, the children come to All Saints' for an end-of-term service twice a year and make visits from time to time to understand the history of the church and to view the efforts we are making to improve bio-diversity as part of our commitment to Eco-Church.
