CHILDREN at Oak View Academy in Winsford have been inspired by exciting challenges.
Pupils created their own versions of the popular story Star in the Jar, in which a boy puts a star in a jar and takes it on adventures.
Teachers said all the children were amazing and brave for staging their first school performance in front of parents.
