The week of October 12th was all about celebrating the harvest. We collected tins of food, fresh fruit and vegetables and learnt all about the harvest and why it is such an important time of year for many people.
Each class collected as much food as they could and packaged it all up for giving out to the elderly people in our local community.
The harvest celebration assembly, held on Wednesday 14th October, was the biggest and best we have ever had. We would like to thank everyone who donated towards the harvest for being so kind and caring. Each class performed a song, poem or play about the harvest.
The children in early years foundation stage told us about their Autumn Walk and impressed us with their ICT skills. Year 1 performed a really good acrostic poem which spelled out HARVEST. Year 2 had been tasting different fruits all week and told us which was their favourite. Year 3 had made up a poem for every letter of the alphabet, from A is for Apple—juicy and sweet right through to Z.
Year 4 performed the “Oats, Peas, Beans and Barley grow” song, and Year 5 sang “Food glorious Food”, and told us some facts about the history of the Harvest celebration. Year 6 sang a song about sowing seeds and digging the land.
To finish the wonderful celebration off, Reverend Sue Forrest-Redfearn, talked to us about seeds and how all good living things come from seeds - even you and me! Let’s hope that next year’s harvest will be just as good, we can collect even more food and help more people.
