Chance to ‘slime a teacher’ helps raise £2,700 at St Michael’s summer fayre

A chance to “slime a teacher” proved popular at St Michael’s Church of England primary’s summer fayre.

Despite a damp start, the festivities at the school in Apton Road, Bishop’s Stortford, helped raise £2,700 for funds.

Attractions included inflatables, a coconut shy, soccer shootout, teddy tombola and grand raffle as well as a host of stalls.

The event was organised by the school’s parent-teacher association. Spokeswoman Helen Hays said: “Slime the teacher was a huge success. We also enjoyed musical performances by the children, Chinese dragon dancing and performances by Stortford Cheerleaders.”

The fete was compered by the team from Harlow Hospital Radio and the headline sponsor was Russell Property, the estate agent with offices in Bishop’s Stortford and Stansted.

Helen added: “Thank you to everyone who took part and supported our school.”
