Only November and feel your goose is already cooked? Dreading the appearance of those darned Rudolf socks? Maybe fearful of trying to squeeze into that body-gripping shrunken-sleeved chunky reindeer jumper for yet another year? Or, do you simply want a break from those mid-summer ‘2 for 1’ Christmas gift offers on the High Street? Then stop drifting towards Christmas! Change your scenery! Put some icing on your cake, plump up your puddings and join hands for the Cool Yule fun at Stanley Drapkin Primary’s PTA 2009 Christmas Bazaar on Sunday 29th November 1-4pm!
Wow, what presents you’ll have to slowly tease the wrapping paper off! Santa’s wonderful Winter Wonderland Grotto*, a jaw dropping Grand Draw, the starry-eyed thrill of the Children’s Raffle, a plump seasonal cake stall, terrific tombola, the joy of Santa’s little helpers’ toy and book stalls, fabulous face painting, the thrill of the jar fill, the mouth watering allure of champagne & chocs, awe and wonder at guessing teddy’s name, a game for all generations of decorating cakes, a chance to game the Wii way and, of course, a moment to stop, stretch your pins and have a good ‘ol cuppa, complete with a lovely sugar-dusted shortcrust pastry-topped mince pie – or a chance to just enjoy a warming glass of seasonal mulled wine ... umm!

Enough to melt any cold heart and banish all winter humbug!
This’ll be no ordinary Christmas Bazaar. This will be a warm, welcoming Winter Wonderland of a special
