YARE VALLEY FARM SHOP

On Saturday 7th June, our school field was transformed into a vibrant hub of laughter, music, and community spirit for our annual FOSS Summer Fête—and what a fantastic day it was!

Despite the predicted thunderstorms, the weather held out and families, friends, and neighbours came out in full force to enjoy an afternoon packed with fun and festivity. From the moment the gates opened, the field buzzed with activity. Stalls lined the perimeter offering everything from homemade cakes and local crafts to second-hand books and plants.

Children delighted in the traditional games—hook-a-duck, the coconut shy, and face painting were all big hits. The tombola and raffle were met with great enthusiasm, with some brilliant prizes generously donated by local families and businesses. The 130 year old church handbells were played by many.

Entertainment was in full swing throughout the day, with music, gymnastic and dance displays. The café proved a popular spot for a sit-down and a slice of homemade cake, while the BBQ and ice cream van kept everyone well fed and refreshed.

Thanks to your incredible support, the fête raised an astonishing £7,300 which will go towards enhanced educational experiences for the children. A heartfelt thank you to all our volunteers, stallholders, performers, and visitors—your time, talent, and generosity made the day such a resounding success.
