The Summer Fayre is one most exciting events of the year at Owler Brook Primary School.
This year it was held on the 26th June 2014. There were lots of stalls, including hook-a-duck, splat-a-teacher, lots of community stalls and much more.
Each year the summer fayre has a theme, this year it was ‘Around the world.’ Every year group got involved in designing a stall around a different country.
There was a wide range of food too. Ice cream, a doughnut van all the way from Huddersfield with fresh warm, sugared doughnuts and a wide variety of other foods from around the world. Year 2 had American muffins and American coke floats for sale on their stall.
Lots of parents and children enjoyed the wonderful day of fun and games.
“My mum, niece and sister-in-law said they all had an excellent time and were looking forward to next year's,” said Mrs Simpson.
The day after the summer fayre, another busy day -The Family Picnic!
Children have fun whilst eating with their parents outside in the sun. It’s also nice to see lots of different parents chatting happily to each other. Music is played throughout the day with MC Nige entertaining the families. There were children performing acts and the picnic ended with a magical magician. “Although it was a little sunny and a little cloudy this did not spoil my day.” Sarah class 10.
“What a fantastic family and community event, all our families getting together and sharing their food and celebrating their achievements of the last year.” Mrs Thabet.
