It’s Christmas, and here at
Grangetown we were determined that our celebrations should
feature a visit from the man himself…Santa!
It took months of secret negotiations, more than a few phone
calls to Simon Cowell, and several staff whip-rounds, but
finally we sealed the deal!
Sure enough, at 2.30 on Thursday 16th December,
we heard the magical sound of sleigh bells …and a great
whoosh as Rudolph carefully brought the giant sleigh to a
halt on the snowy roof of our school hall.
Santa, and one of his elves, arrived carrying a huge sack.
He sat behind our new hall curtains.
The children thought they were there to play more games, and
were astonished – and so excited - when the curtains were
drawn open to reveal Santa! The children told Santa they’d
all behaved themselves this year – not a single one of them
had been naughty!
So, our eager Nursery, Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 children
each met Santa and received a gift and a few kind words!
Then, with another whoosh, Santa set out again for home,
back to the North Pole to continue preparing for Christmas
Eve.
Thanks Santa! ;) |
