BISCUIT the rabbit is part of a menagerie of rescued animals whose future is now more secure, thanks to nursery and reception children at Barfield School.

Children at the independent pre-prep and prep near Farnham raised £70 and donated pet food and accessories to the Aldershot animal sanctuary Ray of Hope.

The 2 to 5-year-olds raised the money by taking part in a sponsored mufti day.

As a thank you to the children, Rod Wray from the sanctuary visited the school and took along Biscuit - a Continental Giant to say hello.

'These children are fantastic and these donations will really help the animals in our care,' he said.
