PUPILS at primary schools across the county have been putting their acting skills to the test in Nativity Plays.
Our photographer has been out and about capturing the young stars across the county.
And we have also been sent many photographs from school staff who are rightly proud of their performers who are putting everyone in the festive spirit.
These pictures have been published in a souvenir special that appears in the paper this week.
