Esther's School Nativity Play

The Friday a week before Christmas started a lovely lead up to Christmas Day, as we were given a great reminder of The Christmas Story at Esther's school Nativity Play. Andrew was pleased to be able to attend and join Ben and I at the school production- the first time all year that Andrew has been free from work commitments and able to come along to a school presentation.
We were all thoroughly impressed with the wonderful musical/ acting production put on by the pupils. The school runs from nursery right through to secondary level (up to International GCSE level), so there are pupils from age 3 right up to 20 (as some start school later out here than back in the UK and fit in according to learning level, not age). The younger ones were more involved on the singing side, while some of the older pupils took on acting roles.
Esther joins in with her class as the Reception sing their parts enthusiastically:
No Room at the Inn for a weary Joseph, with his donkey and Mary behind:
Jesus is born:
I had to get a photo of these wisemen in their original outfits!
Whole school Grande Finale, where even Ben stands up next to his big sister (bottom left) and tries to join in with the fantastic, infectious singing:
