Youngsters have been getting up to all kinds of messy mischief at a weekly play session.
Clore Tikva Primary School in Fullwell Avenue, Barkingside, hosts the activity club for children aged between 14 months and four years old.
The toddlers get the opportunity to play with lots of different messy things such as paint, sand, water, pasta, jelly and play dough.
Organiser Laura Davis said: “Though the activities can change from week to week it is always messy mischief. But it’s our mess, not yours!
“I would say to people thinking of coming along, don’t miss out on the fun.”

She said: “It gives toddlers a wonderful opportunity to have fun and the parents can meet other parents and also see the school facilities.
