The children learnt about Harvest, where our food comes from and the importance of being thankful for what we have. Reverend Gill also helped the children think about how people from different religions and beliefs give thanks in different ways, including how Christians thank God for the food and world around us. There was lots of fun and laughter along the way, with Mrs Pritchard being a very brave volunteer! We also enjoyed singing together, sharing a new Harvest song as well as one of our firm favourites with our visitors. A huge thank you to all our wonderful families for the incredible amount of food donated to Rochdale Foodbank. Your kindness and generosity will help others in our local community, and we are so proud of the care and compassion shown by our children and families. Thank you to Reverend Gill and Julia for making our Harvest celebration so enjoyable and memorable. πŸŒΎπŸŽπŸ’š [Year 6](https://greenbank.rochdale.sch.uk/news/tag/year-6) [Year 4](https://greenbank.rochdale.sch.uk/news/tag/year-4) [Year 5](https://greenbank.rochdale.sch.uk/news/tag/year-5) [EYFS](https://greenbank.rochdale.sch.uk/news/tag/eyfs) [Year 1](https://greenbank.rochdale.sch.uk/news/tag/year-1) [Year 2](https://greenbank.rochdale.sch.uk/news/tag/year-2) [The Acorn Room](https://greenbank.rochdale.sch.uk/news/tag/the-acorn-room) [The Woodland Room](https://greenbank.rochdale.sch.uk/news/tag/the-woodland-room) [The Forest Room](https://greenbank.rochdale.sch.uk/news/tag/the-forest-room) [Year 3](https://greenbank.rochdale.sch.uk/news/tag/year-3) [ Rochdale Foodbank Collection](https://greenbank.rochdale.sch.uk/news/2026-10-08-rochdale-foodbank-collection) [Year 6 Prefects Begin Their Journey as Wellbeing Ambassadors ](https://greenbank.rochdale.sch.uk/news/2026-11-02-year-6-prefects-begin-their-journey-as-wellbeing-ambassadors) ### Greenbank Primary School Greenbank Road Rochdale OL12 0HZ 01706 647923 01706 869303 Β© Copyright 2020–2026 Greenbank Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://greenbank.rochdale.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
