Youngsters aged nine and 10 in year five at Watton Junior School worked in teams to produce their own front pages as part of a series of RE days run by Mid Norfolk Youth for Christ.
The organisation has teamed up with the school for sessions for all pupils and on Wednesday the year fives put what they had learned about Jesus into print.
They created news stories about Jesus healing people, how he died and rose again, they made their own headlines, got pictures and formed adverts before putting being put under pressure to complete the front page within the deadline.
