FACE painting, a bouncy castle and horse rides were among attractions at a community celebration.

The fourth annual Holy Family Funday saw more than 350 people congregate at the Holy Family Primary School in Marlowe Avenue, Park North.

The event on Saturday was organised by members of the Holy Family Catholic Church and representatives from the school.

Organisers said they hoped the event would raise in excess of £2,000, which would be split between the school and church for improvements.

Father Jeremy Rigden said the funday was vital to fostering community spirit in the area.
