Harvest Festival - Thursday 5th October 2023
Wednesday 27th September 2023
Dear Parents
We would like to invite you to our Harvest Festival service which will be held in the school hall at 9.00am on Thursday 5th October 2023
We will not be going to St John’s Church as was our tradition, due to the building works still taking place there.
It will be a short service in the school hall led by Esther, St John’s Church verger, in which the children are invited to donate one of the items listed below from the Medway food bank shopping list.
The children will be singing songs and saying prayers to thank God for the food we have and to pray for those less fortunate than ourselves.
If you have younger children in buggies, please by all means bring the little ones into the hall but leave the buggies outside on site, making sure you take the little ones out of the hall if they are crying.
Please also note that we only have children’s benches and children’s chairs for the adults to sit on, so some of you may feel more comfortable standing at the back of the hall on this occasion for the estimated 15-20 minute duration.
The children should enter school at their normal time in their uniform on this day and they will be brought into the school hall to join their audience at the allocated time
We look forward to seeing you there and joining us in prayer.
