Federation Summer Fair

The Federation School Fair was a great success! We had lovely weather and lots of fun! We raised just under £1500 in total for FOBS and FONS to share. It was a lovely day and we were even treated to some dancing shows put on by both schools! Thank you to all that helped make the day so much fun and we look forward to next year!!!

Culture all relay

Today we were the final leg of the 'Culture all relay'. This event was run by Hampshire County Council to launch 'Culture all'. Culture-all is a Hampshire County Council campaign which celebrates Hampshire's diverse range of attractions, bringing together everything from museums and libraries to country parks and sport.

Various schools from across Hampshire were asked to create some 'batons' to pass onto another school. The batons were supposed to represent your area of Hampshire.

The event started in Portsmouth and travelled to the New Forest, Winchester, Andover, Basingstoke and finished here in Aldershot at Newport. Pictured below are the 'batons' from all the participating schools.

Here at Newport we created a replica of Wellington's statue, a collage depicting the Army, the Rushmoor Coat of Arms, Aldershot Town Football Club and the Alder tree. Accompanying these items was a book created to explain the relevance of each of these things to Aldershot.

The event was filmed and you will be able to watch this film shortly on the Hampshire Website, to find out more about the Culture All project , click here or to watch the video by clicking here
