10:30 am - 11:15 am @ St Bartholomew's Church, Great Gransden
Do you have a budding chorister in your family? Well now’s the time to find out. On the morning of Sunday October 20th (10.30am – 11.15am) St Bartholomew’s Church in Great Gransden is holding a Harvest Praise service and they are inviting any children from Barnabas Oley (and their parents too if they wish!) to come along and sing with the choir. This will be a fun introduction to singing in the choir and children will be able to wear choir cassocks and process into the church with the choir to get the full experience. Barnabas Oley pupils are learning two harvest hymns from the service during our singing assemblies at school and the church choir will be learning two of our school harvest songs so this is a real joint musical venture. Any child who wishes to take part will need to attend choir practice on Wednesday 16th October, at 6.30pm in the church and then of course come along to the service. Children must be accompanied by a parent or carer at the choir practice and service. If your child would like to participate please could you indicate this by emailing the school office. The church choir and visiting children will sing an anthem during the service and Mrs Hadden will practice this in school with those children who sign up.
- Willow Class Stone Age Day21Oct2024
To complement Willow class’ study of the Stone Age and with thanks to the PTA for funding this event, we have arranged for History Off the Page to provide a virtual Stone Age Day in school on Monday 21st October. History Off the Page is a company which provides immersive and practical History, Science and Literature workshops to schools. The workshop will give the children the opportunity to learn about how humans and their predecessors developed technology during the Stone Age. Looking like someone from the Stone Age will help your child to feel like someone from the Stone Age. Humans in these eras dressed themselves up in what the land could provide so useful materials such as faux fur would be authentic for a Stone Age human.
