On Wednesday the 10th of December we had a special visitor in to the P3 party.
He had a special red suit on and a very jolly face. He said, “ho, ho, ho”! and asked us if we had been good.. That is when we knew it was definitely Santa.
We had a lovely party before Santa arrived and we danced and played lots of games which was really fun. Our teachers were wearing sparkly clothes and they were dancing to the Christmas music.
Last Saturday Ellon Primary School held a hugely successful Christmas Extravaganza to raise money for school funds. There were cakes, sweets, jewellery, hair accessories, chocolate and many more stalls for people to visit and purchase their Christmas presents. The P1, P2 , P2/3 and P3 also had fantastic enterprise stalls selling cakes, Christmas pudding lolly pops, Christmas decorations, present tags and food for the birds. Children and teachers came along to sell what they made. Any profit that the classes made will be spent by the class and the teachers and children can decide what to buy.
There was a cafe where you could have soup, biscuits, mince pies, coffee or tea. Mums and dads liked that.
The arts and craft room was really popular and lots of children made Christmas decorations and other things. In the crafty room you could also play a game and buya raffle.
For lots of children the highlight was a visit to Santas Grotto.
The day was a fantastic success and we all enjoyed it.
