Harvest Festival

The Harvest Festival is an annual tradition at St. Ursula School and is an event the entire St. Ursula Harvest Festival community looks forward to each year. The Harvest Festival includes fun family games, crafts, delicious food, prize wheels, and much more! All children attend the Harvest Festival during school on the Thursday before the Festival Weekend. They are also encouraged to return on the weekend with their friends and family. 

Please take a moment to read this information sheet on what to expect during the event and where we need your help.

Harvest Festival 2023 is scheduled for Thursday, October 12th (in-school only); Friday, October 13th (5-9 p.m.); and Saturday, October 14th (5-9 p.m.).
