Have you ever attended a school fete?

Yes, and I love them. I enjoy the atmosphere and there's always some sort of delicious sweets for sale made by someone's granny.

Yes I have attended Port Melbourne Primary school's fete. It was too gud. We had a great time.

I haven't before but my eldest starts school in September and I'm looking forward to attending these kind of events.

Yes recently attended one as a guest. It was fun

by Smita

No, I've never been to one. Art they just for the families of children who attend that school, or are they for anyone?

by Bryony Harrison

I think anyone from around the school can attend like members of the neighbouring community.

Yes!
And I really love going...not sure which ones, because I have been to so many!
I still go, and it helps support our schools, with money raised.
Great Fun! anyone can go.....

Yes I have.Back in my school days there used to be so many stalls, games and yummy treats.I still remember an aunt who used to sell yummmyyy brownies in her stall.

Far too many years ago for me to mention at my local country school. Loved them they were the highlight of the year and my Mum would make lots of confectionary to sell on the stalls. I should have been sick of them once the fete had come around because of all of the sneaky tastings I took part in but alas that wasn't the case.

Yes - when I was at school!

by Matteo Lor

When my sons were at school I used to look forward to fete days.
I was always part of the organisation committee, feel a sense of contribution towards the school.
Great atmosphere and community spirit to be experienced.
Always find a sweet treat or some tasty dish.
Think I will visit one of the local fetes in the area as it has been a while since my last school fete.

Yes, I used to go to a lot when I collected old children's books.
I would often find old ones at school fetes and I would get so excited about these finds.

I also just liked looking around at the various things that were there.

I love school fetes! Even though my daughter is now at university, if there's a school or church fete on in my area I'll try my best to visit it. I enjoy discovering local handicrafts and I find that fetes are great spots to pick up lovely ones, often at a very good price.

The last was the school fete of my primary school. What a surprise it seems so much smaller and less excting than when I was there participating as a child. What a wonderful magical day it was at that time. Toffees for 10c, toffee apples and fairy floss, guess the jelly beans in a jar (that I won one year), trash and treasure sale, books stall and so much more. It was a magical day then and a day full of happy memories now.

I haven't been to a school fete although I have been wanting to.

by Happy Mom

Over the years I have been to numerous school fetes. When my kids were at school I helped out on stalls. I have bought lots of things from school fetes. The most significant was a kitten. I enjoy buying plants at fetes.

Have loved Fetes' since a child, & still go to any local Schools' ones'.

Amazing what 'treasures' one can find......food, sweets, costume jewellery, paintings', & books!

I don't mind how much I buy, as funds' go to the School, for worthy projects'!

by donjo

Oh yes, love them. School fete, church fete, car-boot sale, market, garage sale - whatever! If there's one in the area I'll go. Love the 'one-off' crafty things you can get or the second hand books and white elephant 'stuff'. But mostly, for me, it's the home-made cakes and other sweet things. Mmmm, cake...
