    πŸͺ© ROMFEST - Our end of year celebration dayπŸͺ©

    On Friday 17th July, our fantastic PTA will be hosting RomFest 2026 on the school field – a free festival for every child to celebrate the end of another wonderful year at Romilly Primary School.

    The aim is simple: to give every child a fun, memorable day with their friends before we break up for the summer holidays.

    The PTA have been working incredibly hard behind the scenes over the past few weeks, trying to secure volunteers, donations, entertainment and resources to make the event possible. Until many of those arrangements had been confirmed, they weren't certain the event could go ahead. Thanks to their dedication and the generosity of our school community, we are now delighted to say that RomFest is happening!
