Harvest Mass and Assembly at Our Lady and St Kenelm Catholic Primary School
Staff, children and parents have come together to celebrate Harvest, with a Whole School Mass and an Assembly, led by Miss Marshall and her class, Year 4! Miss Marshall, who lives on a farm, transformed the school hall with a wonderful display of vegetables to educate the children about the importance of Harvest.
The harvest marks the end of the growing season, or the growing cycle for a particular crop, and social importance of this event makes it the focus of seasonal celebrations such as a harvest festival, found in many religions.
The whole school came together to pray, sing hymns and celebrate the importance of Harvest.
On 11th November 2014,
we held a special Mass for all of those who died in the War.
Thank you to all who joined us, as we remembered the fallen, with our prayers.
We also held a two minute silence around our own Poppy Field, created by Miss Marshall, with all the children. This was a wonderful way to remember all those who died as a result of conflict.
