# Summer Fete 2026
**Friday 3rd July, 3:30pm–8:30pm**
We are delighted to share a rundown of what will be happening at this year's Summer Fete!
There will be plenty of food, games, activities and competitions for everyone to enjoy. Our DJ will be providing music throughout the event, and we are looking forward to performances from our School Choir, Dance Club and JW Dance. Performance times will be confirmed closer to the event.
We are also pleased to welcome a variety of local community stalls and charities.
Keep an eye out for the wonderfully entertaining Professor Bumble, who will be wandering around the fete performing magic tricks and creating balloon animals in exchange for a small donation.
# # Forest School Area
Although the Forest School / Woodland area will be accessible during the fete, please note that this area will be unsupervised and is accessed at your own risk. Parents and carers remain responsible for supervising their children at all times.
# # Swimming Pool
The pool will be available for booked children's swimming sessions during the fete. Please remember to book your swimming slot in advance to avoid disappointment.
# # Access to the Fete
The gate at the bottom of the field will open at 3:30pm and will remain open and unsupervised throughout the event.
Access via the KS2 playground gate will be available until 4:00pm.
# # Year 6 Enterprise Stalls and Token System
Following the success of last year's Year 6 stalls and token system, we would like to remind everyone how it works and offer the opportunity to purchase tokens in advance to help avoid queues on the day.
For those who are new to our school, the Summer Fete is our biggest fundraiser of the year. In the lead-up to the event, our Year 6 pupils are given the opportunity to create and run their own stalls to help raise funds. This is a fantastic opportunity for them to develop their creativity, teamwork and business skills.
This year, there will be 10 Year 6 stalls featuring a range of games, activities and treats, all run by the pupils in their teams.
# # How the Token System Works
The Year 6 stalls operate using tokens and do not accept cash or card payments.
Tokens can be purchased from the Token Stall using cash or card and are worth 50p each.
For example:
* 1 token = 50p
* 2 tokens = £1
* 4 tokens = £2
We recommend purchasing multiple tokens at once to reduce queueing throughout the event.
To make things even easier, tokens and raffle tickets will be available to purchase in advance at Sports Days and on selected dates during school drop-offs and pick-ups in the weeks leading up to the fete.
Once purchased, please keep your tokens safe. Unfortunately, lost tokens cannot be replaced, and refunds cannot be given for unused tokens.
Unused tokens will be accepted at selected PTA stalls. Please note that all other stalls will accept cash and card payments as normal, so tokens are only required for the 10 Year 6 stalls.
# # Grand Raffle
Our fantastic Summer Fete raffle will be launching soon!
Attached is our raffle poster, showcasing the amazing prizes that are up for grabs. We would like to thank all of the local businesses and supporters who have generously donated prizes to help make this year's raffle so special.
Raffle tickets will be available to purchase in the lead-up to the fete and on the day itself. All winners will be drawn during the Summer Fete, so be sure to get your tickets for a chance to win one of our fantastic prizes!
