Winter Festival 2024

📅 Date: Saturday, December 7th

🕛 Time: 12:00 PM – 2:00 PM

📍 Location: Harris Primary Academy East Dulwich

Kick off the festivities at this year’s Harris Winter Festival! You can expect old favourites like tombola, crafts, games and Santa’s grotto, but we’re also mixing things up this year. We’re excited to announce the all-new penalty shoot-out, a stall of bric-a-brac curiosities and even live music!

Save space for snacks in the form of homemade cakes and hot food from the BBQ, or choose nibbles from the new food stalls. Thirsty? There’ll be mulled wine and more at the FoHPED Bar, plus hot chocolate and alcohol-free fizz.

Beat the rush for raffle tickets as, each year, fantastic local businesses contribute a taste of what they have to offer: free tickets, drink/meal-deal vouchers, class passes and other goodies.

Of course there’s no dress code, but feel free to rock up in seasonal sparkle, sequins or your silliest Christmas jumper. Bring your friends, neighbours, grandparents; most importantly, let’s give our kids a fete to remember!

WE NEED YOUR HELP!

🪧 Host a promo board at home, to raise £15 for the school

Our longstanding sponsors, Urban Village, are keen to contribute to this year’s Winter Festival. It couldn’t be easier - here’s how.

🧸 Stall contributions

The Fairs Team are ready and waiting for your kind contributions, as a promising haul really brings that buzz to each stall. Please have a root-around and bring any of the items below to the playground at drop-off from Friday, 8th November. We're looking for:

• good-as-new toys, teddies and children’s Christmas jumpers

• unwanted gifts (like booze and boxed toiletries)

• Jolly Jam Jars - either empty jam jars (labels soaked off), or said jars filled with sweets/small toys. Think party bags’!

🎟️ Raffle prizes

Do you know a local business owner that might contribute a prize, or could your employer support the school with some freebies? It’s a great boost to the community, while raising the profile of a business. We gladly accept vouchers, tickets, gift boxes and more. Contact raffles@friendsofhped.com with your ideas.
