Harvest Festival

This morning, the children in Dudley House School enjoyed celebrating and thanking God for the harvest. As well as sharing facts about bread, they also retold the story of the Little Red Hen through drama and songs. The story emphasised this terms worship theme of service, by lending a hand and sharing with others.

Afterwards, the Year 6 children enjoyed visiting elderly people within the community and giving them a cyclamen plant to cheer their day. Some of the children were nervous at first but were soon keen to present the gift and chat to the recipients. As one grateful lady shared as the children were leaving – ‘Their visit was just what I needed today – it has made my day.’

What little act of kindness could you do for someone today?

Harvest Festival – Thank you

Thank you to everyone who came and supported the children in the harvest festival this morning and for all the produce that you kindly donated.
The children shared how appreciative they were of the beautiful world we live in and all the different food there is to eat.
Through the story of the King’s Seeds they shared how important it is to sow seeds of honesty, integrity, kindness, goodness, courage for example, as opposed to sowing seeds of lying, cheating, arrogance etc. that may end up reaping trouble.
Afterwards, the Year 5 children enjoyed taking plants to some elderly people within the community. They also delivered the harvest produce to the Grantham Foodbank where they learnt more about how the Grantham Foodbank operates.
