Summer Fair success!

Wow - what a day! The sun was shining, the crowds were buzzing, and the St Bon’s Summer Fair 2025 was a huge success. Thanks to your support, we raised an amazing £9,000!

From the bouncy castle and the brand-new ‘Floor is Lava’ challenge, to glitter, tattoos, crafts, cakes and the silent auction - the day was packed with fun, food and brilliant St Bon's community spirit!

Congratulations to all our lucky winners in the summer hamper raffle, the Bake Off competition judged by Joe's Bakery, and the winners of the giant teddy and unicorn!!

Thank you

The success of our Summer Fair was only possible thanks to the hard work of our PTFA committee, the Summer Fair team, class reps, parents, and teachers. And of course thanks to everyone who attended and contributed so generously - your support made the day really special.

Thanks also to our sponsors:

• St Bede's Catholic College for sponsoring the bug and nature themed craft stall.

• Sarah Kenny Residential Lettings for sponsoring the candy floss stall.

and to Tiger Martial Arts for the Taekwondo taster sessions at the fair!

• Reformer Space

• Natural Pool Company

• Outdoors Project

• Bristol Beer Factory

• Little Bodhi Photography

• Longleat

• Kellaway Building Supplies

So where’s the money going?

We’ve got some exciting plans:

• A new PA system to keep all school events sounding sharp and professional (to replace the old system which has broken) - that's on it's way as we speak...

• Some fabulous playground games to support the brand-new playground being installed next week (the children are already counting down!)

• And of course, we’ll continue to fund important school resources and experiences like the Bristol Old Vic performance which will take place later this year.
