One of the most traditional aspects of Christmas as a youngster is performing in a nativity play at school. As Christmas Day quickly looms, The News has decided to take a look back at some of last year’s fabulous nativities at schools across Hampshire.
Every year, thousands of schools across the country work hard to create fantastic costumes, organise songs and choreograph routines for students to perform – and Portsmouth schools are no different. From donkey costumes to Bethlehem scenes, schools in the area always put on some fantastic nativity shows for parents and loved ones.
This festive picture gallery features nativities from 14 schools in the area.
Here are 23 pictures from 2023’s nativities at Hampshire schools:
