Hello,
The Winter Fair is coming… next Friday! With lots of wonderful stalls, and a Santa’s Grotto – don’t miss it!
A big thank you to our volunteers who are helping organise this event: about 50 parents are giving their time on the day, or baking cakes and treats beforehand, to make sure everyone has a great time on Friday. Not sure how to help? Email us on frogs.grasmere@gmail.com and we’ll find you something to do!
You can now buy your child’s Santa grotto ticket here! We’re using time slots to make sure the queue doesn’t get too long.
Here’s a map of Grasmere’s very own winter wonderland (we did find a snow machine in the cellar, if anyone knows how to use it, please let us know!):
Now if you could all please keep your fingers and toes firmly crossed for a dry winter’s day… All the stalls will be outdoors, but we’ll have the gazebos up, the fire pit roaring in the garden, and we’ll be serving delicious hot veggie dishes, as well as hot chocolate, massala chai and non-alcoholic mulled wine.
A little update on the FROGS shop: thank you, we’ve taken all your orders for Christmas trees (delivered on the 10th) and made-to-order tops. There’s still some wreaths, craft kits, tote bags, book bags and pencil cases for sale on there. We will be selling them, as well as some blue Grasmere School t-shirts, on the 10th.
The various fair stalls accept tokens only, you’ll be able to buy some from our volunteers on the 10th, either in the morning at drop off, or during the fair at our token and gift stall (where there will be a card reader).
Thank you and take care,
FROGS
