Festive shows score a big hit

CHILDREN from four of the borough’s primary schools showed that with a little tinsel and imagination traditional Nativity shows can be a big hit with parents.
From Duncombe Primary and Montem School in Holloway, to St Joseph’s, Highgate Hill, and St Andrew’s in Barnsbury, the plays were all equal in colour, magic, originality and fun.
One parent at St Joseph’s commented: “Put a child in a colourful headdress and cloak and they seem to perform like old hands.
“It was a wonderful show.”
