MORE than £6,000 was raised at this year's Longparish Summer Fayre.
The annual village fayre, which was held at on Saturday, June 8, at Longparish CE Primary School, raised thousands of pounds.
The event took place on a sunny Saturday afternoon and featured a variety of activities which were enjoyed by people of all ages.
From hook a duck to therapy goats, entertainment (and drinks) flowed as the sun beamed down on the countryside.
The fayre, organised by the Friends of Longparish School, included animal encounters with therapy goats from the Three Bees project, a coconut shy and other traditional fete games, a plant and produce stall, woodland crowns with Hampshire Floral Co and woodland crafts with Longparish Little School.

Friends of Longparish School is a team of volunteers who organise events to raise money for school.
The event was staffed by volunteers who helped to look after stalls and make sure the day ran smoothly.
In total, more than £6,000 was raised on the day, which organisers described as a "success".
Jo Allam, chair of Friends of Longparish School, said: "We had a fantastic afternoon at the summer fayre.
"Thank you to all our supporters and volunteers who helped make the day a success. We are delighted to say the Fayre raised over £6,000 for Friends of Longparish School and Longparish Little School."
The huge amount will be used to help improve the services provided by the school.
Raffles, face-painting and even a 'guess how many bricks are in the Lego man' competition were enjoyed by all.
There were also stalls selling pre-loved books, toys, children’s clothes, along with a plant stall and an American beer van, plus children’s crafts with St Nicholas Church.
Performances from Whitchurch JKA Karate Club, Integr8 Dance, the school choir and the school Maypole dancers were held in the arena, and made for a brilliant afternoon of entertainment.
Hungry attendees were catered to with a delicious barbecue while chocolate and bottle tombolas, a beer tent from Breach Farm Brewing and a Pimms stall were enjoyed by the older guests in attendance.
