A primary school has made donations to a food bank as part of its Harvest Festival.

Kingsfield Primary School, in Chatteris, Cambridgeshire, collected about 25 shopping bags filled with donations for the Salvation Army Church in Chatteris, which hosts the Trussell Trust food bank.

The donations were made by parents and friends of the school, which is part of Active Learning Trust.

The bags contained around 150 tins of canned goods, as well as rice, pasta, biscuits, tea, coffee, toiletries, and nappies.

The school's council delivered the donations to the food bank and presented an assembly about the significance of harvest and how the school community can help those in need.

Lisa Corby, executive headteacher at Kingsfield Primary School, said: “It was brilliant to see that donations were so plentiful.

"I want to say a huge thank you to all of those who sent items into school and to Mrs Walker for organising this event.

“Harvest Festival is an opportunity to remind our pupils of the importance of empathy and kindness and a time to reflect on how we can all support our wider community.”
