PUPILS at St John's Middle School have got their Christmas presents all wrapped up.
Classmates at the Watt Close site having been filling decorated shoeboxes full of gifts as part of Operation Christmas Child.
The Samaritans Purse International-run project means the packages filled with toys, sweets and other goodies, will be sent to children in Eastern Europe.
Teacher Margret Tindall said: "The children thoroughly enjoyed it and many put little letters inside."
