Snowdrops

The humble little snowdrop is the bravest of all flowers in the garden. When others keep themselves tucked up cosy and warm in their flower beds, the snowdrop is not afraid to pop up its head.

In the universal language of flowers, the snowdrop symbolises hope and consolation and has long been associated with child/young survivors of the Holocaust.

Every year, members of Barnet Council plant snowdrop bulbs in various parts of the Borough to honour the children who died.

Our tradition at St. M’s follows a similar pattern. Hopefully, we will have fresh snowdrops on display, courtesy one of our long standing  Jewish friends, Maura Doherty (check) .

The evening will feature a contribution on the theme from our Youth Choir under the leadership of Alison Smart Fisher and art work/representations  from the Youth Group under the guidance of Amanda Knight and Colin Platt.

Look forward to seeing many of you there.

Refreshments will be available at the close of the event.
