Santa’s Visit 8^th December 2020

A fantastic day was had by all when Santa paid a visit to our playground. He brought lovely gifts for all of the boys and girls. This month we have been learning lots of new Christmas songs and we decided to sing ‘Jingle Bells’ to Santa. He was very impressed with our lovely singing.

On the 18^th December, Frosty the Snowman (Class SNA), made a surprise visit to our classroom. The children were very taken with him. Have a look below.

Christmas Preparation- December 2020

The month of December has been a very busy and exciting month in our classroom. We have had lots of fun putting up our Christmas tree and decorating it, we have made some Santa’s out of paper plates and we have also made some Christmas cookies.
