It's the time of year when children across the Towns don their costumes to take part in their school's nativity play.
The Medway Messenger has been invited into a number of schools to capture the Christmas magic.
Below is a selection of our pictures. For more, see tomorrow's Medway Messenger. If you want to buy any of of our photos, visit http://kentmessenger.newsprints.co.uk/.
