A Christmas fair is a great way to bring the whole community together!
Include a range of festive stalls selling handmade crafts, delicious treats or unique gifts, as well as a Santa's grotto and even local performers to create a truly magical atmosphere.
By renting the stalls out to local vendors and selling a range of refreshments to attendees, you can help to boost the school's fundraising pot for the new year!

Set the festive tone with a classic Christmas carol concert!
Featuring your school's choir, band, or even individual student performances, a classic Christmas carol is a guaranteed crowd pleaser.
Sell tickets to your pupils parents and families, and you can even offer refreshments for an extra fundraising boost.
3. Festive Bake Sale
A festive bake sale is an simple and effective way to raise funds for your school!
Ask pupils and their families to bake a range of Christmas-themed cookies, cakes, cupcakes, and other goodies, to sell at school events (even your Christmas fair), school performances or even to your pupils at breaktime!
*Just make sure you are aware of any allergies before selling to pupils and their families.
4. Run a My Art Project Christmas Fundraising Project
What better way to boost your funds than with a My Art Project Christmas Fundraising Project?
Your pupils' have the opportunity to create their own original festive designs, which can then be printed onto a range of products including Christmas cards, mugs, wrapping paper and notebooks.
Parents and families then have the opportunity to purchase a range of personalised Christmas gifts, and all of the proceeds go directly into the school's fundraising pot!
5. Santa Run
Get your school community out and about this Christmas with a school Santa Run!
Organise a route around the school field for your pupils, teachers and their families to run (or walk) to help raise money for the school. Encourage participants to dress up in a range of festive costumes (including Santa Claus, elves, reindeer, etc.), charge a small entry fee or even provide sponsorship forms for some extra funds as well!
