It’s the time when your loved one appears on stage in the Nativity. Whether they play Mary or Joseph, a wise man, a star or an angel, it’s a memory never to be forgotten.
We found these 9 Nativity scenes in the Sunderland Echo archives and they all come from the 1980s.
From South Hylton Primary to Barnes Infants and St John Bosco School to Hylton Castle Infants, we have lots of reminders for you.
So why not take a look and see if someone you know is featured in our festive tribute.
