IT'S the age-old story beginning with the shining of a star.
And every year the age-old story of the Nativity is recreated, putting our little stars in the limelight.
We visited primary schools across the area to capture the shining stars of this year's Nativity plays.
And although there's no room at the inn, there is some on our website for a little Christmas treat.
So here is a gallery of pictures from this year's Nativity plays - Can you spot anyone you know?
