On Friday 6th October the Parents and Friends Trivia Night was held at the Trafalgar Bowls Club. This event was not only loads of fun but also an important fundraiser for our Parents and Friends Committee.
Firstly, a big thank you goes to the Trafalgar Bowls Club Committee and Members for their support and providing us with a great venue.
The night was a hit, with ten teams participating and testing their knowledge on a variety of topics. Congratulations to all the participants for their enthusiasm and teamwork.
Special kudos to our teachers' team from Trafalgar Primary School, who took home the winning title. We're lucky to have such talented teachers guiding our students.
The night was full of fun, and the bonus rounds challenged everyone's knowledge of Trafalgar and local surrounds.
