YOUNGSTERS at a Bishop Auckland primary school got a taste of magic when the Easter bunnies visited bearing gifts.

Children from Cockton Hill Primary School, Bishop Auckland, were presented with mini Easter eggs by their new furry friends.

Headteacher John Redman, said: "One of our parents and a learning support assistant came up with the idea. They provided the eggs and made their own costumes. The children were delighted and became very excited by this magical experience."
