BURY'S Seedfield Methodist Church proved an appropriate setting when nursery children staged their nativity play.

Around 70 youngsters attached to the Kids Academy Childcare were involved in the event and the church was chosen to allow as many parents as possible to watch the nativity. The nursery, based in Walmersley Road, caters for youngsters from birth to five years.

Kids Academy Childcare manager Deborah Turner said: "The nativity went down extremely well and we had been in preparation for the past three months. Because of the amount of parents who wanted to attend, we decided to put on the nativity at the church."
