Our Harvest Assembly

Back to News
11th Oct 2024

We celebrated HARVEST on Friday 11th October and held a whole school Assembly.  We welcomed the Youth Worker Amy Turner from High Kirk to speak at our Assembly. Amy told us what Harvest time means to the church and how from the word HARVEST can be made into words related to the meaning of Harvest. We can be thankful for what we 'HAVE' to 'SHARE' meaning we don't have to 'STARVE'. 


Amy thanked all the pupils and staff for their donations to HIGH KIRK Food Bank telling us it is called 'BOBS STORE'.  Amy explained why it is called BOB's - The 'B' stands for Bag,  'O' for of and 'B' for Blessing - the food bank is a place where 'Bags of blessing' are made to share with so many people. Everyone in Camphill thought this was such a lovely idea and were delighted to hand over a large amount of dried foods to 'Bob's Store'. Have a look at some of our photos below and on our CLASS pages.  
             
Our Senior Choir also performed at our Assembly and did a beautiful job of singing the hymn - 'We Sing Your Praise'.  (*listen below) Everyone then joined in at the end of our Assembly by singing 'Creator God'. 

Thank you to all the pupils and staff who were involved in our Harvest Assembly and to everyone who donated to the Food Bank - You have helped make a 'Bag of Blessing'.
