We are in festive mood and we are heading back through the years to enjoy these merry scenes.
We dug deep into the Gazette archives to find these reminders of schoolchilren putting on parties for pensioners, youth clubs having festive fun and toddlers enjoying a lovely party together.
So get browsing and take a look through our 15 Yuletide reminders.
And get in touch if they bring back happy memories.
