As part of our Place of Worship topic, we visited St Mary Magdalene’s Church in East Ham. We were welcomed by Reverend Katherine, who told us all about the church’s fascinating history. 

Did you know it is over 900 years old?

We had a wonderful time drawing and counting the crosses, learning about Christian symbols, and even watching Reverend Katherine baptise our baby doll, Sarah! To end our visit, we were treated to a special moment; Reverend Katherine playing the church organ for us.

It was a truly memorable and inspiring morning!
