Friends of Gresham’s School (FOGS) hosted their annual Christmas Fayre in aid of the North Norfolk Foodbank on Saturday 9th December in the School Chapel (which is also home to the Christmas Tree Festival) and for the first time the Auden Theatre. There were over thirty-five stallholders offering wonderful Christmas gifts and treats for visitors to choose from, this included jewellery, skincare, artwork, clothing and homewares as well as edible treats for four-legged friends. Festive refreshments were available to help the browsing for those who braved the inclement weather after House matches and for those feeling more peckish PokeNom was available. Schola and the brass ensemble performed for shoppers in the Chapel in the early afternoon and Father Christmas even made an appearance! The raffle also proved to be very popular, thank you to so many Holt businesses who kindly donated generous prizes.
A huge thank you to all stall holders, FOGS volunteers, staff and pupils for making the 2023 Fayre such a lovely event and helping to raise over £2,000 for the Foodbank.
