Saturday 20 December 2025 - Walking Nativity - 10h30 at The Chequers
Calling would-be angels, shepherds, kings, stars, sheep (maybe even camels)...
The Walking Nativity will be taking place this Saturday 20th in the carpark of The Chequers, where we will see if there is any room at the Inn...
Basil the ponkey will be there and will enjoy meeting all the children before the Nativity procession begins.
As last year, he will very likely join us inside the church also, to munch on his hay-net, whilst all the children dress up to form a Nativity tableau with Christmas songs and story.
No need to dress up as nativity costumes will be provided when we get to the church.
Hot chocolate with marshmallows, and other refreshments, will be provided for afterwards.
Everyone welcome!

Berrick & Roke Christmas Fair 2025
🌲 STOP PRESS!
The Christmas Fair raised a magnificent £2765.60 towards maintaining and running our beautiful historic village church.
A massive 'Thank You' to everybody who came, and to those who cooked, served, poured, decorated, set trails, sold, operated competitions and so generously allocated an enormous amount of energy and expertise.
And a particular thanks to the terrific village children who got stuck in with running events, Christingles, and competitions.
What a wonderful village we live in – such bonhomie…
No wonder Santa and his Elf were delighted to fit Berrick into their very busy schedule!
