Youngsters built shelters and painted their faces as part of a summer playscheme at Oxford's Shotover Country Park.

This week, 230 children took part in Project Sparrowhawk, which explored wildlife at the park in Old Road, Headington.

Pictured, top to bottom, are Hannah Hunter, Hannah Roberts, Sam Roberts and Joe Ruhle, who built their own survival shelter.

The scheme was run with the help of more than 100 volunteers and activities took place all over the country park.
