Events & News
FARLINGTON COMEDY CLUB
We have hosted two wonderful evenings of comedy and laughter this school year – in October 2011 and March 2012 – between them raising over £5000 for the PTA! This is a new venture which has received very positive feedback and we are hoping to arrange further Comedy Evenings in the future.
CHRISTMAS FAIR
The Christmas Fair is our biggest fund raising activity. It is usually held in November and includes Professional Stalls, School Stalls, Arts & Crafts, Raffle, Cake Stall, Café, Father Christmas and lots more. It is a great social event and a good opportunity to buy Christmas gifts for family and friends.
There are lots of school stalls for the girls to enjoy. Class groups help organise and “man” the stalls and there are lots of opportunities to win prizes on the various Tombolas.
There is a separate Christmas Fair Committee which starts work in the spring of the previous academic year and has regular planning meetings, normally at the Red Lyon in Slinfold.
This year we raised a record £7,450 – our best total to date. See the News section on the home page for a report of this year's Fair and visit the photo gallery for pictures.
The next Christmas Fair will be held on – Saturday 17 November 2012 11am to 3pm

PREP SCHOOL CHRISTMAS DISCO
Following the success of the prep school disco in 2010 we held another disco in December 2011 for Prep 3 to 6. A fun packed evening of dancing and games enjoyed by all.
Nearly New Sale
We held our first Nearly New Sale of Children’s Clothes, Equipment and Toys in May 2011. We raised over £500 for the PTA and paid more than £550 to sellers.
We are holding another Nearly New Sale on Saturday 12 May 2012. To register please e-mail pta@farlingtonschool.net . The sale will be in the New Courtyard Hall from 10.30am-12.30pm
