THE fairy tale of Cinderella was brought to life Egyptian-style by children at Rodbourne Cheney Primary School.
The pantomime was redesigned to give it a unique twist and was set in Egypt with Egyptian costumes.
It was performed by 10 and 11 year-olds in years five and six.
Deputy headteacher Judith Davies said: "We decided to do an Egyptian style Cinderella because the children are doing a topic on Egypt and the story of Cinderella actually originated in Egyptian times.
"The traditional tale was given several twists so instead of rats turning into horses, we had scarab beetles turning into camels. It was a great success and was well received by a audience of around 100 parents and friends of the school.
"The proceeds from selling programmes and a raffle will go to Children in Need.
"I think the children had a brilliant time."
