Wanstead schools celebrated Christmas this weekend with annual fairs.

Activities took place on Saturday afternoon (November 28) at Our Lady of Lourdes, in Chestnut Drive, and Wanstead Church School, in High Street, Wanstead.

Children enjoyed visiting Santa's Grotto, activities and games, and stalls with food and drink at the two schools.

Theo, Leyton Orient Football Club’s mascot, even made an appearance at Wanstead Church School.
