Christmas Bazaar



The PTA of Marian Academy presents a Christmas Bazaar each year renting tables and chairs or vehicular spaces to the parents or teachers of our school. This is a fund raising event and this year it was held on November 24th, 2007.

The response for rentals was very good this year! Many came forward in the spirit of Christmas, to rents spaces and sell their Christmas items...trinkets, craft, books, clothes, cakes plants, toys, school supplies, anything pre-owned (flea-market style)...an amazing variety! Even our very own 5th form, Graduating class of 2008, had their booth to raise funds for their graduation. The Bazaar is also accompanied by movies for the children while parents/teachers sell or shop!

At the Baazar each year, the moral and social values of Marian Academy must be maintained in what is traded. No tobacco or alcohol products are allowed to be sold.

There was a pleasant 'buzz' of shoppers all day long. Thank you to all supporters!
