Primary School Nativities & Christmas Musicals
Bring the magic of Christmas to life with our wonderful collection of school nativities and Christmas musicals! Trusted by primary schools and churches across the UK and worldwide, our nativities for schools combine the timeless story of Christmas with original songs, engaging scripts, and flexible staging — making them the perfect choice for KS1 and KS2 performers of all abilities. Whether you're looking for a traditional retelling, a fresh and funny twist on the nativity story, or something that works beautifully as a whole-school production, our primary school nativities have something special for every school community.
Our collection includes enchanting titles such as "A Wriggly Nativity," designed for children who just can't sit still, and "Little Angel Gets Her Wings," a charming perspective on the nativity story that has huge appeal to infants and parents alike. For those seeking a lively and humorous take, "Jesus' Christmas Party," based on the million-selling storybook by Nicholas Allan, offers a very entertaining experience with songs that almost teach themselves.
Why Choose Our School Nativities?
Our school nativities are written by teachers for teachers, which means every production is designed with the realities of school life in mind. Simple to rehearse, straightforward to stage, and genuinely exciting for children to perform, our nativities for schools take the stress out of Christmas term without compromising on quality or impact.
Each primary school nativity in our collection comes complete with everything you need:

Professional backing tracks in multiple formats
Vocal scores and piano parts
PowerPoint lyric presentations to speed up rehearsals

All songs are available to stream on Apple Music and Spotify, and to download from iTunes — making it easy for students to practise at home.
Suitable for KS1, KS2, and Whole-School Productions
Our school nativities are designed with flexibility at their heart. Productions can be scaled up or down to accommodate different year groups and cohort sizes, with generous numbers of speaking parts and strong ensemble roles to ensure every child has a meaningful part to play. Whether you need a compact primary school nativity for a single class or a large-scale production involving the whole school, our nativities for schools adapt to suit your needs.
Many of our productions work equally well for KS1 and KS2, and several make excellent whole-school Christmas performances — bringing together students of all ages for a truly memorable occasion.
Easy to Stage, Wonderful to Watch
We know how demanding Christmas term can be, which is why our school nativities are built to be as easy to produce as they are impressive to perform. Scripts are clear and accessible, songs are deliberately crafted to be quick to learn, and our PowerPoint lyric presentations mean rehearsals can begin immediately without any extra preparation.
The result? A primary school nativity that children are proud of, parents are moved by, and teachers can deliver with confidence — whatever their level of musical experience.
