Get Festive with Christmas Readers Theatre Scripts

The resource consists of three Christmas-themed readers theatre scripts. Each script is approximately two-and-a-half pages in length. Each script has five different roles and features Christmas favourites such as Mr and Mrs Claus, the elves and Santa’s trust reindeer.
