CHRISTMAS has come early for youngsters at a primary school.
Father Christmas and his elf paid a surprise visit to Birkenshaw CE Primary School in Station Lane to make a very special delivery - a new minibus.
The children gathered in the school hall and watched Santa Claus via a webcam as he drove to the school in the new vehicle which will be used to transport the children to events and trips around the area.
A spokesman for the school thanked everyone involved in the fundraising for their support and also the vehicle sponsors The Carroll Cleaning Company and Coubrough & Co estate agents.
