Polar Express comes to Sydenham!
The community around St. Brendan’s, Sydenham got they very own ‘Polar Express’ train ride for the day as part of their annual Christmas tree lights event last weekend.
The train was one of a number of attractions that included the light switch–on (complete with snow), hot waffles, chocolate fountain, snow cones, Santa letters and the fantastic Ormeau Concert Band leading us with Christmas classics.
Santa also made an appearance and was very patient with the over 200 children that made their way through the grotto!
Everyone who came was given a copy of ‘The Impossible Promise’ Christmas story book and a Christmas card highlighting a series of events in December including a children’s Christingle Service.
