PANCAKE DAY
Oak Tree Day Nursery in Wokingham (below) celebrated Shrove Tuesday on 21 February with a sponsored pancake toss. The pre-school room alone raised £40 for Ikamva Labantu, a charity in South Africa that supports people living in disadvantaged townships in the country.
Children at Little Acorns Washington, Tyne and Wear (top) also tried their hand at flipping a few pancakes, and then ate their finished products topped with lemon juice and sugar. At Stepping Stones Day Nursery in Warrington (bottom), also part of Little Acorns, children made their own pancakes and were left to flip to their hearts' content, substituting playdough and toy pans for the real thing.
