Harvest Festival Friday 23rd October 2026

Dear Parents

Harvest

This month we are thinking about Harvest in school.

Our Harvest Service has been booked at St Philip's Church for Friday 23rd October at 9:30am.

Every year we choose a charity to support and this year we are supporting our local church Foodbank charity. This amazing group of volunteers provide emergency food packages for people living in our immediate area. This is particularly relevant during these tricky times. By choosing to support this charity, we hope to promote and instil within the children, the understanding that they can make a difference and share what we have with those who find themselves in times of difficulty.

We would appreciate it if you would send in non-perishable food items on Wednesday 21st and Thursday 22nd of October (see suggestions at the bottom of this letter) and these will then be distributed by members of the parish.

This year there is a list of specific items that would be gratefully received, see below. As always, we thank you for your continued support.

Suggested items: biscuits/snacks, squash, coffee, teabags, soup, tuna, tinned meat products, rice, instant potato, tinned vegetables.

Kind regards

Mrs Sym and Miss Hibbert
