Hundreds of children enjoyed an enchanting evening of family fun as the circus rolled into Lacey Green. 

Happy's Circus put up their big top at St John's C of E Combined School in Main Road on June 9 to entertain 600 children and parents. 

The circus wowed the crowds with spectacular performances from the Randelle Clowns, acrobats, aerialists, speciality act Rolla-Rolla, as well as sword balancing and magic acts. 

There was also a barbecue, bar, chocolate fountains and games and stalls. 

Pupils could even throw wet sponges at their teachers.

The event, organised by the school's parents association, raised money to buy new IT equipment. 

The excited pupils had been taking part in colouring competitions to win front row seats at the show. 

The lucky winners were Beatrice Wiles, who is in the Reception class and Stanley Voss, a Year Three pupil.
