As many of you know, the Summer Fete is a family fun day for the whole Claremont community – pupils, parents, extended family, future pupils, past pupils, neighbours,.. There will be all your usual fete fun – bouncy castles, games, ice cream, face painting, food and refreshments. And the best bit? Every penny raised will go towards the PTA!
It will be on Saturday 1st July, 12-3pm and this year ENTRANCE IS FREE! All are welcome - family, friends, neighbours.
The PTA has a small number of coordinators and we will again be reaching out to the Claremont community to help make the success fun for all. This blog is to explain the ways we will be asking the Claremont community to rally together to help make the Summer Fete a success!
WAYS TO HELP:
We are not charging an entrance fee but we welcome donations. You can quickly and easily make a transfer directly to the PTA's bank account from the banking app on your phone by clicking here.
We are asking for donations of the below items to help us populate the stalls and raffle hampers.
Please bring these to school during drop off on Thursday 22nd and Friday 23rd June. Find the PTA helpers either at the Banner Farm Road Gate or in the bottom playground from 8.40 am until 9am.
Please donate:
- Teddies
- Books
- Unopened bottles of alcohol
- Raffle prizes – a specific colour depending on your child’s year group (see below).
Teddies and books can be second hand but please ensure they are good quality (clean, no holes etc).
The raffle will be a “Colour Raffle”. There will be 7 wonderful hampers up for grabs. We are asking each year group to donate raffle gifts of a specific colour:
- Reception – RED
- Year 1 – ORANGE
- Year 2 – YELLOW
- Year 3 – GREEN
- Year 4 – BLUE
- Year 5 – PURPLE/PINK
- Year 6 – WHITE
VOLUNTEERING ON THE DAY:
As is Claremont tradition, we will be asking each class to provide volunteers to help set up, run a stall and tidy away. We are asking Class Reps to coordinate this for each class so please do add your name to the rota when it comes around. These are the stalls that each class will be responsible for:
Acorns - Lucky Dip
Saplings - Hook a Duck
Ash - Tuck Shop
Elm - Coconut Shy
Rowan - Gingerbread Decorating
Maple - Poo in the Loo
Hazel - Sponge a Teacher
Cedar - Bottle Tombola
Juniper - Book Stall
Acer - Teddy Tombola
Elder - Human Fruit Machine
Linden - Token Stall (& guess the name of the teddy)
Hawthorn & Whitebeam - Entrance Gate & Token Stall
The Summer Fete really couldn't happen without each and everyone coming together so thank you very much for your support - whatever you can give will make a huge difference!
THANK YOU!
CASHLESS FETE:
The Fete is following the same format as Clarefest. Stalls will be CASHLESS and you can pay by tokens. 1 token costs 50p.
You can buy tokens (using cash or card):
- BEFORE THE DAY: After school in the bottom playground at pick up on Monday 26th June - Friday 30th June.
- ON THE DAY: at the Token Stalls near the entrance gate at the top playground.
Full Fete information including a map and how many tokens you'll need for each stall, will be available in the Fete Brochure that will be handed out to every family at school on Tuesday 26th June and also at the gate on the day.
We look forward to seeing you there!
