Groups

Little Lambs is a group for the under 5’s and their carers. We have been meeting recently at St. Edmund's Primary School, Hoxne and are hoping to be able to continue this relationship, as well as meeting up for special events on occasions. Details of future meetings will be issued soon.

The group is open to all young families in Hoxne and the surrounding villages, and further afield, so come along to meet other young families in the area. No need to book.

Open the Book is organised by a group of people who visit the primary school three or four times a term to present bible stories to the children through acting. The group is always looking for more people to help with this: to take part in acting or narrating, or to help with props. Please get in touch via the contact form if you think this is something you would like to be involved in.
