YOUNGSTERS at a Colchester nursery enjoyed a frightfully fun day of events to mark Halloween.

The children at Busy Bees Day Nursery, in the Severalls industrial estate, were given a whole host of activities to get stuck into yesterday.

Centre director Kate Whitnell said all who took part were thrilled with what was put on.

“The children had a wonderful day celebrating Halloween,” she added.

“The day was filled with fun and games and a spooktacular pumpkin carving competition.”
