Small fortune! School’s fair set to boost its arts project

MINIATURE gardens and giant slides, children busking and the Dads Band, healthy vegetarian curries and chocolate fountains: all the fun of the summer fair came to Brookfield School’s playgrounds over the weekend as the Highgate Newtown primary celebrated another academic year.
The fair featured a mini-garden competition judged by headteacher Mark Stubbings, where pupils had to make tiny patches of earth for the head, in his first year at Brookfield, to mull over.
The day’s events raised a whopping £7,300. The cash will go to a new school project called FAB – Fabulous Arts at Brookfield – which starts next term with a textile design project and then a dance course.
Other highlights included the appearance of a tractor borrowed from Hampstead Heath in the junior playground, and a long line of under-11 deadshots ready to take aim with soggy sponges at the “Splat the Teacher” stall, and five-star performances by the school choir and orchestra.
