THERE was fun down on the farm at an inaugural family sports day.

Finkley Down Farm Nursery and Pre-school held its first ever sports day on Friday June, 29 allowing tots to go for gold.

Sarah Gough, nursery manager said: "We had a fabulous turn out of about 120 parents. It was brilliant to see so many faces, and such an amazing amount of support from families.

"Each child won a gold medal at the end of the day and everyone did brilliantly in taking part.

"We ended the day with a farmyard picnic for everyone.

"The children had a wonderful day, gold medals and nail painting and face paints all round. Even some of our parents took the opportunity to get a quick manicure."

There were four races for the children to participate in while parents were encouraged to competed in a dressing up race.
