Happy Days nurseries collected £1,000 for Marie Curie during a variety of events to celebrate the company’s 10th birthday.
Parents, staff and families enjoyed a fundraising disco night at Hayston Golf Club while youngsters enjoyed a fun week in their nursery with a magician, Zoolab, face painting and a bouncy castle.

Staff and youngsters from Happy Days are pictured handing over the cheque to the hospice, which is in the grounds of Stobhill Hospital.
Happy Days manager Claire Henderson said: “We took some of the children up to Marie Curie Hospice and they were given a tour.
“The children sang Easter songs to the patients. It was very moving. We sang songs in the dayroom and also went into a couple of rooms where the people were too frail to make it along to the day room.”
