The well-established event gives visitors the chance to explore the site and find out about what the college does.

Each department of the college was represented and visitors had the chance to have a quick lesson in fishing or farming, a tractor ride, watch a dog show or explore a range of food and trade stalls.

Horticultural students even gave members of the public the chance to judge their work in a garden design competition.

Leah Sloman, a visitor to the show, said: 'We have been before and we have always had a lovely time.

'This year was no different. We really enjoyed seeing the tractors and the animals.'

John Nice, from the college, said: 'Coming off the back of a successful Suffolk Show, the college enjoyed welcoming the local community to our Norfolk campus.

'This event seems to get bigger and better every year.

'From our point of view, it's a great opportunity for us to show off the range of things we do whilst offering a fun day out for the all of the family.

'Thousands came along to support us and for that we are very grateful. The sun shone and it was a really nice and relaxed atmosphere.

'We would like to thank the local community, all visitors, our staff and our students for attending and supporting us.'

There were also a number of external companies at the event.

Gerald Beckett, from the Norfolk Military Vehicle group, said it had been a 'brilliant day'.

Any profits made from the event will be split between the college's two chosen charities for 2017.

They are Walking With The Wounded, which fundraises for the re-education and re-habilitation of wounded servicemen and women - and Gardens for the Gambia, an educational agricultural charity.

The next event for the college will be the one of the country's largest county shows - the Royal Norfolk Show, which takes place over June 28 and 29.
