Harvest Family Service at St Barnabas Church
On Sunday 12th October, our children have been asked to sing some of our Harvest songs at their special Harvest church service at St Barnabas Church at 11am. Children do not need to be in choir, we are singing the songs we will be singing at our Harvest worship in school so they are familiar to all of our children. I would love as many children as possible to attend to represent St Barnabas. Please can you complete the google form below with your child's name and year group if they are able to attend. https://forms.gle/HSwHM7qeDJuvyhaS7 Thank you. Mrs Wilkinson
