The Sidmouth College Association has thanked everyone who attended their Christmas fair to help net £1,520.
The event returned after a four-year break with more than 45 stallholders selling a variety of crafts and gifts.
Refreshments were also available and there was entertainment from the folk choir.
An association spokeswoman said: “The committee would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who supported this event and for the generous donations of raffle prizes from over 45 local businesses.
“A fantastic total of over £1520.00 was raised.”
The cash will be used for additional resources for the students.
