Festive fun delighted young and old when Cauldeen Primary School's PTA held their Christmas fair on Saturday.

Plenty of cheer and community spirit where on show for the fun-filled day, with everything from Santa's Grotto to Bubbles the Clown and even Cuddles with the Great Ferrets Association delighting the youngsters.

A spokesperson said: "Cauldeen Primary School PTA hosted a Christmas Fair with the children and community at the heart which is very important to us as we grow and work hard as a team alongside parents, teachers and the children to achieve greatness as we have only been established since October 2022.

"In such a short time the PTA has worked very hard to provide various events and they have boosted the school's morale tenfolds.

"The day welcomed many people not only from the school but out with our local community, with at least 500 in attendance enjoying our Christmas Fair.

"We were kindly donated prizes from Scotmid, Tesco, Asda, all the traders and families of Cauldeen Primary School.

"Our aim was to raise funds to support the children of Cauldeen School and we raised £617 and we would like to thank everyone for their support on the day.

"We have had great positive feedback from our Christmas Fair and this will help us prepare and organise for our next event to allow us to fulfil the support and fun we set out to do for the children of Cauldeen."
