Vicki Richards, children and youth minister, conducted the service at St John the Evangelist Church last month.
Nursery manager Jacqui Hannaby said the idea came about after one of the children attended a christening.

“It was a lovely event, the children were really well behaved and Vicki was very accommodating to us all.”
“Carly and Granby are the nursery’s transition bears - they go everywhere with the children and teach them responsibility for looking after things and sharing.”
