Welly wanging, egg throwing, smashing plates and hooking a duck were just some of the attractions that kept visitors amused and entertained during the summer fair at St Matthew's Primary School, Blackmoor, on Saturday.
REME Bordon again supported the day by bringing along a tank for the children to explore and experts were on duty to answer their many questions.
Impressive live music was provided by Mill Chase School and local band The Riot House.
Hot, sunny weather meant the barbecue crew worked flat out to keep up with the orders for freshly-cooked burgers and sausages, donated by Smallbones Butchers of Farnham.
Strawberry and cream teas were also in great demand, together with the chance to sit down and relax in the shade by St Matthew's Church.
Early indications show that around £1,900 was raised on the day, which will go a long way towards continuing to fund St Matthew's PTFA's playground project.
Spokeswoman Philippa Hatt, said: " A big thank-you must go to all the PTFA members, parents, governors, school staff, St John Ambulance, local playgroups and all the other willing helpers – and of course, the great British public for their generous support once again."
