P2 pupils at St John’s Academy, Perth, retold the Christmas Story in their traditional Nativity Play. This year, the production was based on ‘The Sleepy Shepherd’, a hugely successful nativity play from leading children’s writer, Niki Davies.
Parents, families and friends were introduced to the story through the tale of a lovable shepherd who just couldn’t keep awake. Would he miss out on the big adventure? A heavenly choir of angels managed to catch his attention just in time to guide him to the place where Jesus was born!
Directed by the P2 teacher, Mrs Patricia Crines, supported by the rest of the staff, the whole cast were angelic and, once more, the Christmas message was heard.
The shepherd’s message – “Stay Awake!”
