We have enjoyed our short week in the lead up to the Christmas holidays and have been thinking lots about what Christmas means for other people. We were talking about how not everyone celebrates Christmas in the same way and how lucky we are to be spending time with our families this festive season.
I think I am lucky this Christmas because:
Poppy – “I get to spend time with my family”
Griffin – “I get a tasty Christmas dinner that my mummy and daddy cook for me”
Breaghannon – “I get extra cuddles from my family”
Teigan – “I get to try new things, I like Breakfast with Santa the best”
Ellie – “People are kind and buy me presents”
Rory – “My mum and dad let me open presents in the middle of the day and I like doing that”
Emily – “Santa visits me and I spend time with my family”
Marley – “I get to make crafts with my mummy”
Liam – “I might get to see Santa, that would be lucky”
Keegan – “I get to spend time with all of my family”
Rio – “I get to see my dad”
Leila – “I like spending time with family, on Christmas Eve I can see my friends”
Jonah – “I have lots of brothers that love me”
Brandon – “I like spending time with my family and going to the cinema on Christmas Eve”
Cameron – “I spend time with my family”
Millie – “I get to spend time with my family too”
Max – “I have the best teacher at school and I get to have a holiday”
Regan – “I have the best friends at school and the best class”
Leah – “Santa gives me the presents that I really want because I am on the nice list”
We had a chat in circle time about what we hope Santa will bring us for Christmas. Here is the thing we are hoping for the most:
Teigan – “I would like a train”
Cameron – “A teenage mutant ninja turtle thing that has a slide”
Rio – “A dinocharger would be cool”
Griffin – “I would like an ipad”
Poppy – “I would like Trollz”
Leila – “I hope I get an American girl doll with blonde hair”
Jonah – “I have a big Dumbo, I would like a small Dumbo”
Marley – “My favourite will be Pokemon cards”
Ellie – “I would like Paw Patrol Pups”
Keegan – “I hope Santa brings me Pokemon cards”
Liam – “I would like Dinosaurs”
Emily – “I would like an American doll too. I want it to have an ice cream van”
Brandon – “The number one thing on my list is a Transformers Fire House Headquarters”
Breaghannon – “I would like Paw Patrol jammies to go to bed in”
Leah – “I would like a Hatchimal”
Millie – “I would like an American girl doll, the ice cream one”
Max – “From Santa I would like an iphone”
Regan – “I have lots of things but I would like a castle that is already built”
Rory – “Presents that I like opening is what I would like”

(A note from Mrs Mansfield – I would like to thank everyone for your kind Christmas gifts, I am really looking forward to opening them on Christmas day. I hope that you all have a lovely festive period, full of Christmas cheer, and get the opportunity to ‘recharge your batteries’ before the start of Term 3. Thank you for your continued support, I look forward to seeing you all again in the New Year! Merry Christmas!)
