Connecting with our Local Community

Harvest

At harvest time, our school supports the Edenbridge Foodbank. Our families generously bring in donations of food to help other local families in need, which helps the children to learn about the importance of supporting our community. We also come together for a special Harvest church service, where we give thanks for the food we have and celebrate the generosity of our school community who help families to feel like they belong in our community.

Connecting with our Global Community

Umoyo Community Project

Our school is proud to support the Umoyo Community Project in Malawi and the important work it does to make a positive difference in the lives of others. Through fundraising, donations and raising awareness, our children have the opportunity to learn about compassion, generosity and the importance of helping communities further afield. We are delighted to work together as a school community to support such a worthwhile cause.

We also connect with the Umoyo Community on a spiritual level, sharing in our faith and learning from one another. At Hever, we learnt a poem shared with us by the school in the Umoyo Community and recited it for them. In return, we sent them a recording of our school song, which they learnt and then shared their own recording with us. This created a lovely opportunity for both schools to learn from and connect with each other, celebrating not only our shared faith but also the unique cultures and traditions of our communities.
