Children at a Chingford Primary School performed a nativity play in front of hundreds of parents and staff.

The children at Whitehall Primary School, in Normanton Park, Chingford, aged between four and seven, performed The Sleepy Shepherd, a story about a shepherd who is always tired but wakes up in time for an adventure to Bethlehem.

The play was performed in the school's main hall on December 9, 10 and 12.
