FESTIVE fairs were enjoyed by families across North Somerset as the district’s schools got into the Christmas spirit.

During the past week, Santa has stopped off at events in Nailsea, Clevedon and Portihsead, handing out gifts and spreading some Christmas cheer.

Fairs were held at High Down Infant School and St Peter’s Primary School in Portishead, All Saints East Clevedon and St John the Evangelist primary schools in Clevedon and at Golden Valley and Kingshill primary schools in Nailsea.

As well as Christmas-themed games and challenges, visitors could also get stuck into craft activities as well as some delicious festive delicacies.
