This week in school, the children across EYFS, KS1 and KS2 have performed their nativities in front of their parents and carers.
KS2 performance was called ‘Straw and Order’, a lawfully good nativity, with a fun twist on the classic nativity story. The story begins in a courtroom in the middle of Bethlehem…
The cows feel pushed out of their stable and they want it back! The donkeys, accused of having invited over a whole host of people, including a baby, deny all charges.
Fed up by their petty squabbles and confused by the nature of the case, Judge Grumps is far from happy. Seeing this, the narrator offers to take him out of the courtroom to witness the night’s events firsthand.
As the judge encounters bickering innkeepers, self-important wise men, cool shepherds, some dancing sheep and a spectacular angel choir, everything starts to become clear. Rushing to the stable, the judge is humbled by the sight of Jesus and when he and all the characters experience the peace and love that this special baby has brought in to the world, it seems that the judge’s verdict is inevitable.
The children were FANTASTIC! The acting skills were phenomenal and their singing, WOW! As a school, St Aidan’s are definitely well known of because of their wonderful singing voices.
Well Done to everyone involved!
