We also launched our October harvest theme, promoting opportunities to make a positive contribution with our Stoke-on-Trent Food Bank Donation Appeal. We also watched a short video to understand the work of this important local charity.

As a school we are again collecting donations for Foodbank from Monday 9th October up to Wednesday 18th October which will be our Harvest assembly in school.
