Levens Remembers

 in Bowfell / Church / Scafell / Skiddaw / Whole School by

On Friday we invited friends, family members and the community to join us for our special service of Remembrance.  Each class contributed to part of the service.  Scafell performed dramatic freeze-frames based on the book ‘War Game’ by Michael Foreman; Bowfell retold their version of the story ‘The little Hen and the Great War’; and Skiddaw led us in prayer and read out the names of all the service men killed in action at or since the First World War.

Our service also involved every child placing their own poppy onto the central display piece on view in our school hall.

Hurray for Harvest!

Our Harvest preparations are in full swing for tomorrow’s celebration in St John’s Church. Each class will be showcasing some of their learning with growing vegetable soup, sharing the apple harvest and facts and figures about King’s Foodbank. This is our local Foodbank in Kendal who will be the recipients of our harvest gifts this year. Cans, packets and long life gifts will be most welcome. Please do come along for our 2pm service – all welcome.

Skiddaw’s Harvest

 in Church / Skiddaw by

We have been thinking all about sharing linked to the Christian festival of Harvest.

We’ve been lucky that Sam’s family have shared their apple harvest with us. We looked carefully at the colours and textures of the outside of the apples and drawing them using oil pastels. We then cut them in half, in different ways, and have drawn them in chalk pastels.

This week we have also been practising our cutting skills using the bridge grip and the claw grip to safely chop up the beautiful Bramley apples before cooking them. We have enjoyed sharing and eating them with cool natural yogurt.
