The fathers and daughters spent the afternoon working together in Farlington’s beautiful Forest School area - sparking a fire, whittling wood, filling a matchbox with natural objects and undertaking woodland challenges. The afternoon ended with a small picnic of the girls’ marshmallow and fruit kebabs and cheese and pineapple hedgehogs.

Mrs Addison, Prep 2 teacher, said: “The girls loved spending quality time with their fathers and working with them in the Forest School area, while the fathers gained a real insight into the girls’ Farlington world.

“A great way to celebrate Father’s Day.”
