Without fail, our very own Trinity High Christmas Fayre was nothing short of a success for yet another year! Organised by the one and only Miss Kilgour, the fayre was a massive hit with lots of stalls, games and raffles to be won!

Stalls

There were so many amazing stalls brought by so many talented individuals. We were greeted with a crochet stall selling hand-crafted animals, foods and unique plushies, along with two other very special crafting stalls owned by us (Caera Neeson and Arinade Adediran S3). We were offering not only crochet but cards, bookmarks, jewellery, decorations and even some fun interactive games! 

Additionally, so much tasty food was open to us, especially sweet treats. Our tastebuds were tingled with chocolate, strawberry, and so many more flavours combined with a variety of products. We basically turned the street area into Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory for 2 hours, and who am I to complain at Christmas time?

Red Wednesday was an amazing day with so many fun activities, (like wearing red, a bake sale, a raffle, and face painting). We also raised a lot of money for ACN - over £1000. 

While all this is so fun, the real reason why we have red Wednesday is to stand for persecuted Christians all over the world, so they know they are not alone and there are people that support them. 

On Red Wednesday we wore red which represents the blood of all the persecuted Christians and raising money our school helped to make sure more Christians are now safe. Overall, Red Wednesday was a wonderful day where we got to show our school values of faith, hope and charity.
