This was my place of work this morning, shortly before the delightful children and staff of St Mary's Shenfield arrived for their weekly service. I've been coming here for some years now and feel very much part of the school community. And what a school community it is. Vibrant, alive, ambitious, caring. This really is a superb school with excellent leadership and staff who work for the children's highest good. Today we considered "I want to be ...." and looked as some of the "be ...." exhortations in scripture. And we sang, we prayed, we laughed and we wondered. And we each decided for ourselves how we should be .... today. Extra blip, my walk to work.
