'Chav' nativity which has Jesus turning water into lager angers parents

A 'chav' nativity play where Jesus turns water into strong lager and the three wise men bear gifts of Adidas and Burberry clothes was handed to teenagers to learn at a school during a drama lesson.

A relative of one of the pupils described the text of the play as "disgraceful" and said it gave completely the wrong impression of the nativity to pupils.

Michelle Taylor, 35, said she was stunned when one of the pupils at the Oakwood School in Bexley, Kent, showed her the play. "I couldn't believe what I was seeing.



"You try to encourage your children to speak properly and then they get given this sort of thing at school. I know some young people do speak like this sometimes but the school should not be condoning it in any way.

"In one scene they have Mary and Joseph breaking into a garage because there is no room at the inn. That is not right. The pupil I spoke to thought it was highly amusing that Mary and Joseph were being portrayed as chavs, but I didn't."

One section of the play talks about the police killing 'bay-bees' and another about the extra benefits Mary and Joseph will get after baby Jesus is born.
