Candy Cane Lane Christmas Fayre Raises Over £1,000 for Fairtrade Foundation

Our Candy Cane Lane Christmas Fayre, held at the end of last term, was a hugely successful and festive event, welcoming large numbers of families into school to celebrate the season together.

This year’s fayre was spread across multiple venues, including the sports hall, main hall, dance studio and atrium, creating a lively atmosphere throughout the school. Each space was filled with activity, festive cheer and a strong sense of community.

We are delighted to share that the event raised over £1,000 for our chosen charity, the Fairtrade Foundation, thanks to the generosity and support of everyone who attended.

The school choir set the festive mood with a performance of Christmas songs in the hall, while families enjoyed a wide range of attractions. These included a popular raffle with fantastic prizes, a Santa’s Workshop where guests could purchase balloons, cards and sweets.

The sports hall and dance studio were filled with student-led stalls, showcasing creative and inventive games designed and run by students in their tutor groups. Activities such as crazy golf, bowling, hook the duck and a ‘stick the nose on the reindeer’ game, featuring a reindeer model created by students, were enjoyed by all ages, with many prizes won throughout the evening.

Hot dogs were available throughout the event and were extremely popular, with queues running for much of the event.

Feedback from guests was overwhelmingly positive, with comments including:
“It is so, so, so amazing!”
“It was amazing, great prices, amazing deals and incredible sweets.”
“I’ve enjoyed it here so much.”
“The food is amazing.”
“I loved the raffle – it’s been my favourite.”
“The hot dogs were banging.”

The fayre had a wonderful festive atmosphere, and students worked incredibly hard designing games and products for their stalls, demonstrating creativity, teamwork and commitment.

A huge thank you to all students, staff, families and supporters who helped make the Candy Cane Lane Christmas Fayre such a memorable and successful event.
