A BELATED bonfire night went with a bang as fireworks lit up the sky over a school.

Thousands of people watched the display at Crofton Infant School, Town Court Lane, Orpington, last Friday.

The crowd was entertained by music from an old-time music organ before the show and munched on barbecued hot dogs and burgers.

Parent and Staff Association committee member Vicky Reed said: "I think it was a very successful event and everyone had a good time, both young and old."

The annual event is a joint fundraiser for Crofton Infant School and Crofton Junior School.

Last Friday was the closest day to Guy Fawkes' Night the professional display team were able to run the show.
