Primary Chairty Committee Contributions to the Annual Winter Fair

by Primary School Charity Committee

Preparations in the Primary School for this year’s Winter Fair began months in advance with several brainstorming meetings. The committee had millions of fantastic ideas and decided in the end on two games along with making and donating some items for sale.

The Sour Candy game was an instant hit, with lines forming as soon as the doors opened. Alia and Andrei explained the rules: players had to hold a sour candy in their mouth for fifteen seconds without making a face. If they did, they got a free extra candy! Tudor took their money and judged their faces very carefully.

Maria took charge of the ‘Guess the Christmas Song’ Game. Each contestant had to listen to five seconds of five songs and name each one. If they guessed all five correctly, they got a mystery prize!

Daria and Yasemin made homemade cards and decorations, Andrei crocheted toys and jewellery and Ebraheem brought lush, fuzzy earmuffs and watches to sell, which all proved very popular. Erika, Matei, and Ana all helped to sell them.

As the fair began to wind down, Andrei, Alia, Maria, and Leti were still working hard, honing their sales skills by taking merchandise around and selling it directly to the customers. Everyone worked collaboratively and creatively to raise money for our charity partners and we all had a blast.
