Over 70 stalls will be exhibiting the most beautiful crafts and gifts during Saturday’s event and the public can expect to see a stunning range of arts and crafts ranging from fused glass designs, stoneware, ceramics, jewellery, hats, scarves and mitts, prints, soft toys, quilts, photography, all things knitted, crocheted or textile, cosmetics, garlands, soaps, homemade jams, scones, cakes and chutneys as well as other seasonal offerings - edible or otherwise!
Principal Marie Lindsay has also promised a great selection of musical entertainment on the day.
“We have a fabulous musical tradition in the school and visitors can sample much of what our young local musicians have to offer.

And the school principal was on hand to point out that you’ll not go hungry.

“Have a sit down with a cuppa coffee or hot chocolate, recharge and go again.”
