THE festive season comes to Stockton Heath tomorrow night when the Christmas lights are officially switched on in the village.

Chairman of Stockton Heath Parish Council Maurice Leslie will turn on the lights at 6pm, on Friday, outside the Mulberry Tree.

Following a carol concert from the children from Stockton Heath Primary School, the school will open its doors for a Christmas fair until 9pm.

There will be hot food and snacks, a craft fair and a chance for youngsters to have their photo taken with Santa Claus.
