The true meaning of Christmas has been celebrated in schools this festive season with children across Chester and Ellesmere Port taking part in their Nativity plays.

We've received some wonderful photos which we've put into a gallery.

If you would like your child to feature, please email your photo to cheshire.news@trinitymirror.com with their full name and school.

Alternatively, you can tweet us @ChesterChron or post to our Facebook page.
