School Fun Day Hire in Somerset

Funtasia Entertainment supplies school fun day hire across Somerset for PTA summer fairs, sports days, end-of-term celebrations and fundraising fetes. Choose from bouncy castles, inflatable games, funfair stalls, tug of war, garden games and fun food, with prices from £25. We deliver, set up and collect from our base in Yeovil, and we supply the insurance and safety paperwork your school needs.

We work with primary schools, secondary schools, academies and PTAs. You deal with our own team from the first call, so it's one supplier for the whole day.

Plan Your School Fun Day by Age Group

Most fun days need something for every year group. Here's a starting point, with "from" prices:

Age group	Ideas	From
Nursery & Reception	Soft play, Happy Hopperz, Didi car track (4+)	£25
Key Stage 1	Giant Combo Castle, Under the Sea Assault Course, mini funfair games	£40
Key Stage 2	Bungee Run, Gladiator Duelling, Speed Radar, funfair stalls	£90
Secondary & sixth form	Total Wipeout, Human Table Football, Laser Quest, Rodeo Bull	£250
Staff & parents	Skittle Alley, High Striker, Tug of War	£30

Fundraising Ideas for PTAs

Many PTAs charge a small amount per go or sell wristbands, so the entertainment helps raise money for the school. Games with a quick turnaround and a winner work best:

Funfair Stalls (from £175): coconut shy, hoopla, hook a duck, tin can alley and more, each with £50 of prizes
Mini Funfair Games (from £40): splat the rat, ball in a bucket, feed the clown and ring the bull, ideal for smaller spaces
Speed Radar Challenge (from £90): who can kick the fastest shot? Keep a leaderboard for the day
High Striker (from £175): test your strength and ring the bell, with our operator
Popcorn & Candyfloss Stall (from £400): sell fresh treats from a striped stall

For more ideas, see our charity and fundraising entertainment page.

Sports Day Equipment

Tug of War Rope (from £30): a 30 m competition-grade rope for teams of up to 20
Space Hoppers (from £30): adult certified, so staff and parents can race too
Traditional Garden Games (from £30): lawn games to keep spectators busy between races

Inflatables for School Fields

A giant bouncy castle or assault course keeps younger pupils happy, while older pupils queue for the competitive games. See every option on our inflatable games hire and bouncy castle hire pages.

Giant Combo Castle (from £120): room for lots of children at once
Giant Party Time Bouncy Castle (from £150): a large castle for primary fun days
Red & Blue Assault Course (from £200): a 14 m course with a slide, with no characters, for ages 4 and over
Total Wipeout (from £450): six players at once, run by our operator

Wet Weather and School Hall Options

If the forecast turns, several things can move inside. The mini funfair games, skittle alley, giant games and crazy golf (from £275) all work indoors, and many inflatables fit a sports hall with enough height. Tell us your hall size when you book and we'll plan a back-up layout.

Paperwork for Schools

£5 million public liability insurance certificate
Risk assessments and safe operating procedures
PIPA test details for our inflatables, and PAT records for electrical equipment
Our own trained operators for the staffed attractions

End-of-Term and Leavers' Events

For Year 6 leavers' parties or Year 11 and sixth form celebrations, add a rodeo bull, a photo booth or see our prom entertainment.

School Fun Day FAQs

What paperwork do you provide for schools?

We provide our public liability insurance certificate, risk assessments and safe operating procedures, plus PIPA test details for inflatables. Ask us for anything else your school needs.

How much does a school fun day cost?

It depends on what you choose. Small items start from £25 and inflatable games from £150. Tell us your budget and pupil numbers and we'll suggest a package.

Can PTAs charge for each go?

Yes, many do. Our funfair stalls and quick-turnaround games such as the speed radar work well for pay-per-go fundraising.

What happens if it rains?

Many items can move into a school hall, including the mini funfair, skittles, giant games and crazy golf. We'll agree a wet-weather plan with you in advance.

When should we book for the summer term?

As early as you can, particularly for weekend summer fairs and the last weeks of the summer term.
