Youth Group
The youth group is a very active group
of young people of secondary school age. Led by the
rector and Clare Hooper, they pursue an interesting and
imaginative programme of meetings and events. These events
are divided each month into the informal and formal on
a regular schedule: that is, on the first Sunday of
each month there is an informal meeting ranging from things like a cinema visit to a go-karting
evening, and on the third Sunday of each month there is a formal
evening at The Rectory. But note that this routine is suspended during August and resumes with the informal evening at The Rectory at the beginning of September.

Each year the Youth Group enjoy a weekend away. In 2006, for example, they stayed at the YMCA on the Isle of Wight and as this photograph shows, they had a really cool time!

I have 10 tickets for the ice skating at Winchester Cathedral. The rink is surrounded by a fantastic Christmas Market and stalls selling Christmassy food. If you would like to come, please let me know as soon as possible.
We are always looking for new members so if you have just moved to the parish and are aged between 11 and 18 (secondary school age), or if you are here already but have not yet given us a try; we would love to meet you! Just give me a ring for all the info. Look forward to seeing you at the above events.
