Here are our children helping out at home to raise money for the Harrow Food Bank.  They're washing up, looking after siblings, dusting, cleaning, clearing leaves and much more!

Remember to send your pictures to harvest@pinnerpark.harrow.sch.uk 

For Harvest this year we are undertaking a 'Help Out to Help Out'. We aren’t able to hold our usual Harvest gatherings this year so we’ve come up with a scheme whereby we can still celebrate Harvest and help others.
 
We want all our children to ‘Help Out’ at home in return for a donation to the Harrow Food Bank.
 
Traditionally in rural locations the entire community would be involved in the gathering of the harvest - everyone helping out - and a share of the harvest would support those families who need it.
 
We're doing the modern day version by doing our 'Help Out to Help Out'! 

Please talk to your child about how they might help out at home – washing up, washing the car, sorting, tidying, preparing meals – and agree an amount of money you will donate in return for a good job done!  Jobs can be done any time over the next week or so (half term is a great opportunity!)
 
Once everything is complete, please donate your money using the following ‘Just Giving’ link.  After half term, we’ll make sure all the money goes directly to the Food Bank.

It would also be fabulous if you could take a photograph of your child doing their jobs so that we can share them with the community through a video on Pinner Park Online.  Please send any photos to harvest@pinnerpark.harrow.sch.uk

​Harrow has moved to the High Alert Level for Covid-19 (also known as ‘Tier 2’).  Cases of Covid continue to rise rapidly across London, as well as in Harrow, so we all need to play our part in controlling the virus and keeping each other safe.
 
The move to Tier 2 now means more restrictions around social distancing in London and Harrow to control the spread and save lives: we must not meet socially with friends and family indoors in any setting unless we live with them or have formed a support bubble with them. This includes private homes, and any other indoor venues such as pubs and restaurants.
 
Please remember the guidelines we have in place for parents to reduce the risk of transmission.  Please follow this checklist as closely as possible. 
 

• Social Distancing:  Please keep 2 metres between adults when waiting on the playground. 
• Face Coverings:  Adults, please wear a face covering if you are able to, whenever you are on the school site (including on the playgrounds)
• One Parent:  We are allowing just one parent to drop off and collect, to reduce the number of adults on the school site
• Timings:  Please aim to arrive just a few minutes before your children drop-off or collection time.  Please leave the site as soon as your child has gone in.
• Drop off:  Please find a space on the playground and send your child to the teacher when he or she comes out to collect – please can adults remain in their space and not ‘line up’
• Collection:  Please find a space on the playground and we will send your child to you.
• Reception / Office:  We are limiting access to the building because space is limited. Please use the parent information point which is in the upper school playground – this is our ‘outdoor office’
• Be Kind and Polite to one another:  Please treat each other with respect, including our school staff.  We may have to remind you of these rules – we are just trying to keep everyone safe
