A SCHOOL is trying to raise money to fund a new play area by holding an American themed fete.
Pupils from Ivy Chimneys school in Epping will be dressing up as famous American people at the event on July 4.
The Friends of Ivy Chimneys have organised the fete which will be held between 12 and 4pm at the school.
Money raised from the £1 entrance fee for adults will go towards funding a brand new play area with new equipment at the school.
There will also be go carting, a barbecue, tombola, maypole dancing and a bouncy castle.
