It is our great pleasure to invite your family to the Jersey Academy of Music Summer Fayre and Awards Day from 1-4pm on Saturday 19th June 2021.

As in previous years, the event will be held in the grounds of Chateau Vermont with live performances from Academy students and teachers, a variety of stalls, games and refreshments.

Outside stage performances

This year we are inviting groups of students to perform on the outside stage, which the teachers will be organising. We will see the debut performance from our Academy Community Choir! There is still time to join this group and if you would like to do so, please let either myself or Nicki Kennedy know. Other confirmed performances include the student vocal department ensembles, three woodwind ensembles, the Suzuki violin group and some folk music from our teachers.

Indoor performances

All students are invited to perform solos in the Chapel throughout the afternoon.

Stalls

So far we have the following things to keep you busy:

Bouncy Castles

Sumo Wrestling

Bottle Stall

Splat the Rat

Coconut Shy

Picnic Area

It would be lovely to see the garden area full of happy families enjoying a picnic in the sunshine, being entertained by our wonderful students. You are very welcome to bring a picnic or alternatively you can pre-order one from our amazing caterers, which they will have ready for you to collect as you arrive at the Fayre! The picnic menu and order form is available here

Refreshments

Drinks, cakes and ice cream will be available to purchase throughout the afternoon.

 

Raffle

We will begin selling tickets over the next few weeks and you will receive details of these by email.  We already have a few wonderful prizes donates, but definitely need more. If you are able to help source a prize for us, then we would love to hear from you.

Awards

At the end of the afternoon we will be joining together to celebrate the achievements and dedication of our students at the Awards Ceremony.

Can you help?

If you are able to help us with any of the following items, please let Claire or Andy know.

Gazebos	In order to shade our volunteers and staff from the glorious sunshine that we have ordered, we will require some gazebos.
Bottles (Alcoholic and non-alcoholic)	For the bottle stall. We ask that you give any donations directly to your teachers.
Raffle Prizes	We are seeking a few quality prizes.
Coconuts	For the coconut shy!
Time!	Could you spare 30-minutes of your time to help run a stall on the day?  This could be parents or other family members and senior students.

This is a family event and it is our aim to celebrate the achievements of the students, meet and make new friends and raise funds for the upcoming musical year at the Academy.

We are so excited that this event is able to run this year and we look forward to seeing you all soon!
