KPA Summer Fair 2023
Kilgraston Sports Hall was recently transformed into a bustling hive of stalls and entertainment for the KPA Summer Fair. With a bouncy castle and the odd bag of sweets or two, attendees meandered amongst the stands. The booths were a mixture of local businesses such as Pop Fox Interiors and pupils own business such as Lower Four’s Connie who made over £150 for the stables with her book sale.
Outside Kilgraston’s Equestrian team and ponies, led by manager, Alasdair Matheson, were kept busy with the queue of excited children looking for a pony ride. Inside, after the paninis had sold out and the crowds were treated to entertainment from Mike’s Magic Show.
Thank you to the Kilgraston staff who helped with the set-up, to all the stall holders and businesses for their support and to the KPA committee.

Kilgraston Parents’ Association Summer Fair
Last Saturday, 11th June, the Kilgraston Parents’ Association Summer Fair took place at the Sports Pavilion. Despite a blustery start, the day was filled with fun and excitement. Several stalls were featured including the ever popular strawberries and cream, baked goods and sweeties, along with the newly introduced Pimms table. Strawberries were kindly donated by Emma Stuart-Reid of Broadslap Farm with Pimms donated by Upper Third parents. Splat-A-Rat and ‘Guess How Many’ proved to be very popular, with Leonie securing first prize for the latter.
Many raffle prizes were kindly donated by staff, parents and local businesses, including Clootie McToots, Harmony Beauty, and Gleneagles. Thank you to all who donated prizes and congratulations to all the winners!
The Fair also saw some of our own Kilgraston Entrepreneurs showcasing their talents including the Sixth Form Girls with their wellness packs, the Science Department and the Apiary Committee, and Lower Four’s Ishbel with her luxury, handmade soap business called Airbubble. We hope to see more students and staff with their own stalls at next year’s event!
Finally, a great BIG THANK YOU to all the staff, students and Gap Year Girls who helped with the Summer Fair. All the support is very much appreciated. And thank you to everyone who attended. We hope you had a lovely day!
