....and running Meadows Primary School in Birmingham.
Because 6 year old Alfie normally takes a packed lunch to school he was banned from having a Christmas Dinner and was left to eat his sandwiches whilst his little mates enjoyed the cooked meal. The school said that there was not enough room to accommodate pupils who normally ate sandwiches. The child is six years old for crying out loud how much room does he take up?

That's my nomination for Scrooge of the year, anyone seen any others?
:-( :-P

Oh Joeva - what an absolute idiot. Some of the children are only 5 years old, I see he is retiring soon....not before time. Hope the parents can tell the little ones that the vicar is just jealous because he is on Santa's naughty list for telling fibs about him
