Hide AdOne pupil, who was very excited to see Santa, said: “I asked Santa for a whistle. I think I could be a DJ because I have heard lots of Rock ‘n’ Roll songs and I have been a narrator in my nativity play.”
Rob Rose says he hopes the show brings back fond memories for listeners.
He said: “The whole team at the Sarah Julian Breakfast Show wanted to join with our communities to celebrate the festive time of year, and who better to do that with but children?
"It’s an amazing experience for the children and we hope listeners enjoyed the show.”
