DADS battled it out with their children during an action-packed afternoon of activities last week.

The group of 15 fathers and children from Roysia and Greneway Schools enjoyed a trip to Battlefields Live Hertfordshire organised by the Royston Extended School's Initiative.

A spokesman for Extended Schools said: "The group were split into two teams and the competition between them was fierce.

"The event was organised by in recognition of the importance of Dads to their children," she said.

Battlefields is similar to paintballing, but lasers are used instead of paint. The action took place in woods on the site of the Nuthampstead airfield.
