A wild time was had by the children of Happy Days Nursery in Falmouth on Friday as they got dressed up tohelp a wildlife charity.

The pupils were taking part in Wear It Wild Day, an initiative by the WWF to encourage children to have fun while fundraising and learning about the natural world.

From little ladybugs to terrifying tigers, all the children had the chance to dress up as their animal of choice, or to get their face painted at the nursery, for a £1 donation, and the group collected £50 for the charity.

Mel Seager, the nursery manager, said: "They have all had great fun, doing lots of animal themed activities."
