Happy Kids Charity Fashion Show
Our annual Charity Fashion Show was held on Friday, 27 March 2026.
The benefiting charity in 2026 was the Robert Burns Foundation.
HAPPY KIDS brings fundraising into fashion!
One of history’s worst earthquakes and tsunamis devastated the Indian Ocean region on 26 December 2004, killing over 230,000 people in fourteen countries, and inundating coastal communities with waves up to 30 meters high. It was one of the deadliest natural disasters in recorded history. Indonesia was the hardest-hit country, followed by Sri Lanka, India, and Thailand.
Starting with a relief operation and charity collection organised by the Baptist Church, Happy Kids decided to make its own contribution to this relief operation. The first Happy Kids Children’s Fashion Show began in March 2005 with the aim of raising money and collecting items that would help these devastated areas. Following the great success of this first event, we decided to make this fashion show an annual program in the Happy Kids calendar, where each year a different charity would be supported.
On 27 March 2026, many parents, grandparents and other family members crowded around a catwalk, set up in Happy Kids International Kindergarten, to see the next generation strike a pose on the runway.
With unique themes from each class, the runway came alive with creative costumes unlike those seen in the fashion houses of Milan, Paris, or London. Many of the children learned basic sewing skills to create their own designs, while others transformed old clothes using paper, paint, and imagination. Most of the outfits were made from recycled materials, making the event both creative and environmentally conscious. The smiles on the faces of staff and families made it clear that this was a truly proud moment for everyone involved.
Happy Kids would like to thank everyone for their wonderful participation in the Annual Charity Fashion Show. It was a fantastic opportunity to bring our school community together.
