Its reception and year one students told the story 'Hey Ewe!' which saw a curious sheep trying to work out what was going on in Bethlehem, while Eastgate Academy in King's Lynn performed the traditional nativity play, complete with a child dressed as the Star of Bethlehem.

School spokesman Hannah Tuck said: 'All performances were well attended and staff at both academies would like to say a big well done to all of the children for their hard work on learning their lines and songs.'

The schools are both part of the CWA Academy Trust.
