Sheep and bantam chickens from Waterloo Farm played a starring role in the Pre-Prep Nativity Service on Friday, creating a memorable live manger scene.

A Year 10 pupil, who volunteers on the farm as part of his Duke of Edinburgh Award, proudly introduced one of the animals to the delighted Pre-Prep children.

Adding to the festive spirit, free-range eggs from an agri-enterprise led by Year 13 pupils were available for purchase on a ‘select your own eggs’ basis.
