Age UK Guests Enjoy Christmas Lunch with Students
On 19th December Harris Academy Bermondsey welcomed its neighbours from Age UK to celebrate Christmas lunch. During the afternoon there was a delicious Christmas lunch with all the trimmings, a quiz with top prizes, piano recital and the choir singing Christmas songs with everyone joining in.
The students at Harris Academy Bermondsey enjoyed welcoming their guests. “It was so much fun, we would like to do it again in January!” one student commented after the event was over.
The guests also appeared to really enjoyed the afternoon. "It was the best Christmas lunch I have had even eaten,” one guest commented, with other noting that “the girls at HAB made us feel so welcome and were so kind”.
Katie, a Year 10 student (pictured below), organised the whole event with generous donations from Tesco and Waitrose. A career in events management is definitely on the cards for Katie!
Harris Academy Bermondsey are hoping this is the start of a Christmas tradition that will bring together the different generations to celebrate Christmas with good food, music and lots of laughter.
