The items, which were made from gingerbread by children from St John's Primary School, formed part of the school's Gingerbread Go! competition.

All 230 children at the school and nursery got the chance to bake 'flat pack' houses in school, thanks to local businesses donating ingredients.

They then decorated them and turned them into their dream homes, with teachers setting different themes for each class.

The gingerbread-baking took place earlier this month and was followed by a grand display in the school hall this weekend.

Reagan Shipley, chair of the PTA, said: 'All the local businesses really supported us with the first Gingerbread Go! last year.

'It created a lot of impact in the town and we're hoping this year will be even better.'

The event is part of a special weekend of fun activities to raise money for the school.

Visitors to Hoveton and Wroxham are able to follow a Gingerbread Go! trail around the village – seeking out the 3ft-high wooden Gingerbread men and women decorated by local community groups and cluster schools.

The Gingerbread people are hidden in shop windows and other locations.

Each one contains a letter which forms a mystery phrase – if children and parents can decipher it they could win a family pass to Bewilderwood.
