A review of photographing and filming at children's events is underway after parents of pupils at Strathburn Nursery in Inverurie, Aberdeenshire, launched a protest petition. Parents were furious when they were told they would not be allowed to photograph their children's first nativity play. One mother said, 'They are making everyone lose out on a very precious part of their family's life. No group photos were allowed. It was only your own child propped against a bare wall. It was such a shock and disappointment.'
