Parents, teachers and friends of Ely College, part of Meridian Trust, hosted over 40 stallholders at its Christmas Market on Thursday evening, raising over £2,500 for school resources.
Simon Warburton, Principal of Ely College commented “What a wonderful evening! I’d like to express my heartfelt thanks to the PTFA for their amazing efforts in bringing this event to life. I know how much work went on behind the scenes and I’m in awe of their relentless commitment to supporting our college community”
Bev Saddington, Chair of the college PTFA said “Despite the poor weather, we still had an amazing turnout. It was lovely to see the college ‘jam-packed’ with so many from the community enjoying the festive atmosphere. Huge thanks to our PTFA for their hard work; as well as the stallholders, local businesses and, of course, our parents.
The evening raised over £2,500 which will be used to support students’ learning.
Raffle tickets winners were drawn on the night, but will also be listed on the college’s social media channels early next week (for anyone who had to leave early). Winners are encouraged to pop into the school reception next week to collect their prizes.
