The hallways of one Redbridge primary school echoed with the sound of sleigh bells and carols when children held their annual Christmas concert yesterday.

Pupils from Years 1 and 2 at Gearies Primary School in Waremead Road, Ilford, took to the stage to perform a variety of the best-loved Christmas hits.

The youngsters donned their brightest Christmas jumpers and sang their hearts out, take a look at our gallery to get a taste of what the concert was like.
