Thank you to our sponsors
The Otford Village Fete wish to thank our generous sponsors for their support of this wonderful local event.
St Michael’s Prep School is once again proud to be sponsoring the Otford Village Fete this year. For the past century St Michael's Prep has been educating children in our glorious North Downs, using the natural beauty, rich heritage and connection with the local community of Otford village to inspire its lifelong learners. A co-educational school for children aged 2 to 13 years (Nursery to Year 8), St Michael’s Prep is driven by a passionate belief in the Joy and Wonder of Learning.
We are very grateful to Down To Earth for being this year’s sponsor of the Otford Village Fete Craft Village.

GUIDE DOGS CHARITY
