The scarecrow is to represent everyone in the community that did something during lockdown to support others: the neighbours who checked in on each other; the doorstep clappers; the children who danced and sang outside care homes; the children who wrote letters to older people or video called their grandparents; the people who gave away laptops to support children and to make sure isolated people could keep in touch and the people who picked up shopping to help others who couldn’t.
A huge thank you to KS1 Gardening Club for both their ideas and creating the scarecrow. Also, a thank you to Miss Jones and Miss Hawdon for helping to put it together.
Our Angel is now part of an Angels and Saints trail around the local area. Follow the link below to find out more information:
