CHILDREN at Gallions Primary School have discovered the true meaning of the festive season.

Performing with a live band, pupils from the school in Warwall, Beckton gave their lively and colourful interpretation of Charles Dickens’ famous Yuletide moral story, A Christmas Carol, to a packed house of parents and staff.

Paul Jackson, head teacher, said: “Every child from Reception to Year 6 at Gallions performed, singing dancing and acting superbly.”
