There were no animals in the manger that Jesus was born in, the Pope has declared as the Christian world gears up towards Christmas next month. He has said that the presence of animals such as cattle and donkeys used in traditional Nativity scenes are based on nothing more other than myth.

Henry from newstalk was in to visit 3rd class to see what they thought of all of this!

The children were on the radio today! Well done to Michael, Nadia, Cian and Ryan!!
