Whole school - Harvest Cereal Challenge for Widnes Foodbank

Lesson: Religious education

Class: Year 1 Year: 2024 - 2025

On Friday the 18th of October, we had a great morning completing our Cereal rally challenge.

After collecting boxes of cereal over the last month, each child came with their class to place a box in line ready for 'the big push!' 

We were joined by Vicky from the Foodbank and Pip Turner from Asda who organised a donation on their behalf.

We also received a donation from Tesco in Widnes too, which helped boost our boxes to around 230 in total.

The children joined in with a countdown and watching the boxes being knocked over, followed by big cheers at the end!

Thank you to everybody who donated and to all of our children for particpating and showing their solidarity with others.

Comments from the children across school included:

"It was great fun and we got to help people too!"

"I hope people in Widnes won't be hungry now."

"The Foodbank is a brilliant thing."

"I can't wait to do more to help other people."

"I hope the people who get our cereal love eating it."
