ST BREWARD Prim­ary School took an alternative approach to harvest celebrations this year and the event was a great success with children and parents alike.

The event, the idea of teacher Tim Brewer, aimed to attract donations for Wade­bridge Food­bank and started with the children turning up to school in non-uniform in exchange for donations of food to the charity.

Throughout the day, children then made a hearty vegetable soup, bread rolls and flapjacks which were served to grateful parents who turned up in numbers to support the event. Children and parents were also able to enjoy a harvest story told in assembly by Rev Sherry Bryan.
