The parent teacher association worked tirelessly to get a number of stalls spread out across the local neighbourhood near to St Giles Church of England Primary School on Saturday.
PTA members say it was a great success and they wanted to thank the local community for all of their support. A particular highlight was Santa's Grotto which "looked straight out of a story book".
The £1,200 will go towards giving the children of the school in Portland Crescent a panto experience and on new equipment.
Head teacher Caroline Gardner said: "It was wonderful to give the children a festive event and be able to include the wider community."
