Sunshine, stalls, and a fantastic community spirit made this year’s Summer Fair at Clarborough Primary School one to remember. With a record number of stallholders and more than 150 visitors through the gates in just two hours, the event was a huge success for all involved.
The fair, held in support of Clarborough Primary School, was organised by Helping Hands PTA a small group of parents working together to support the school and create opportunities for all children, now and in the years to come.
From handmade crafts and personalised gifts to delicious food and family activities, there was something for everyone to enjoy. The fair not only showcased an incredible range of local small businesses but also brought families and neighbours together in celebration of community.
All funds raised will go directly back into the school, helping to enhance resources, experiences, and events for the pupils. A huge thank you goes out to all the brilliant stallholders and to everyone who visited to support the day. Organisers were especially grateful for the generosity of local and surrounding village businesses who kindly donated prizes to the raffle:
