YOUNG charges at a nursery in Crossflats welcomed a special guest to their Christmas party this year when Father Christmas popped in to see them.

Wishing Tree Nursery and Pre-School, in Crossflats, run by Sally and Steven Robson, opened in 2015 for children from birth to five years.

This year's party was the biggest yet and they invited the bearded guest to come along and read and give out presents while collecting donations for the Children's Trust charity.
