STUDENTS at a Wythall school took their harvest festival produce out into the community.

Pupils from Woodrush Community High School collected harvest items, then packaged them up into boxes for Year 11 pupils to take to the elderly and to people in nearby residential homes.

Ian Cooper, student development officer at the Shawhurst Lane school, said it was something they did every year and was enjoyed by everyone involved.

"The elderly are very appreciative of their gifts, the children enjoy decorating and making up their harvest boxes, and the Year 11s especially like taking them out to people - it went brilliantly," he said.
