Fashion Show
On Friday 4 March, The Friends of Tranby hosted their infamous Fashion Show. Guests enjoyed a display of fashion from Milla Boutique in Swanland and the models had their hair styled by Mark Hill Salon.
It was so lovely to see everyone back at Tranby and enjoying the show again with over 150 guests and an array of stalls, it was definitely a fabulous girls night in. Guests were given a glass of fizz on arrival along with a goody bag containing discount vouchers and gifts from the sellers. Guests also enjoyed a selection of canapes which was provided by Tranby’s catering team.
The event was a huge success and FoT raised £2,500 towards extra-curriculum and learning equipment for our pupils.
Tranby Prep teacher and model for the evening, Caroline Crossland said ''It was a superb night, all my friends who came absolutely LOVED it. The atmosphere was amazing''.
Another guest commented ''I thoroughly enjoyed the night, all the clothes were stunning''.

Phoenix Ball - Saturday 13 November 2021
Last month the Friends of Tranby hosted the Phoenix Ball in the Radcliffe Hall. Parents and staff dressed to impress and danced the night away to live music and a disco. It was a perfect evening and together we raised £2,400 to help fund a new minibus to allow the school to take our children to forest school, sports fixtures, field trips and many more adventures and also to provide little extras for the pupils of the school: enhancing their learning and their learning environment.
The committee would like to thank everyone who helped make the night so special and a big thanks to Michael and his catering team for providing a delicious 4 course meal.
