A TRADITIONAL Nativity with a twist appeared to be the theme across Camden primary schools as children celebrated the beginning of the festive season. 

Pupils from Beckford Primary in West Hampstead took to the stage dressed as snowmen, reindeer and even the film star Macaulay Culkin as they put on a stage version of the film Home Alone at Christmas.

Emmanuel, also in West Hampstead, told the story of a sleepy shepherd while  The Rosary RC Primary in Hampstead told of the “biggest brightest star.” Fleet Primary in Belsize Park put on a production of Scrooge and parents packed into the Royal School in Hampstead to see their children dressed as elves and snowflakes.
