Children dress up as dragons, knights, princesses and other medieval characters from the culture of Canterbury, England. The event will include lunch, games, crafts, pony rides and the unveiling of the school's new mascot.
The faire began at the school in 1988, substituting a medieval theme to celebrate the Halloween season.
The event is called "Canterbury Faire," because Canterbury, England, is the birthplace of the Anglican Church, later called the Episcopal Church in America.
For more information about the event, call the school at 774-8622.
