Harvest Festival

Our Harvest Festival was held in St Martin's Church and led by Rev David Adlington, the Area Dean.  Each class performed a Harvest song, play, dance or poem and the children led prayers.   Each child brought in Harvest Gifts which, together wit the church congregations gifts, were donated to the Shepway Food Bank.

Pilgrims Hospice

We held a Tea and Cake Event which was attended by pupils and parents/carers. There was a Tombola, a Book Sale and other stalls.  We raised £328.68.

Red, White and Blue Day

By paying £1 to come to school wearing Red, White and Blue  we raised £208 for the following charities which support members of the military and their families:

Royal Navy and Royal Marines Charity

ABF The Soldiers' Charity

Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund

CHILDREN IN NEED

We raised money by collecting 10 pence pieces and seeing how many 10p spots we could put on Pudsey.  After school the staff organised a Pudsey Party where we were able to make Pudsey hats, decorate cakes, make Pudsey pictures, dance and  play games on the playground.  We also had a hot dog and a drink. We raised £381.00 in total!
