Nativity plays are always a special part of a child, and parent's, life.
Whether you were in the lead role as Mary or Joseph, or got to play the donkey, we all have happy memories of those early Christmas plays.

But for the children in these photographs, there is the added significance that they featured in the first ever edition of the Sittingbourne News, which is set to celebrate its 10th anniversary on December 14.
As part of a special edition of the paper to mark its first decade, we'll be republishing the pictures used in a four-page nativity supplement, back in 2011.
In it were children in Year R, 1 and 2 from schools including Murston and South Avenue Infants and Newington and Milstead and Frinsted primaries.
We'd love to hear from the families of those featured, or our cover stars, Desiana and Jakub from Murston Infants who were on our first front page. Do get in touch by emailing sittingbourneKM@thegroup.co.uk.
