Christmas came early for pupils across West Lothian as our Interim Depute Chief Executive, Greg Welsh, brought festive cheer through a special live storytime event.
Primary 3 at Hawkhill Primary School were excited to welcome Greg, for a live reading of “Santa’s Sleigh is on it’s way to Scotland”.
The session was joined live by over 1 500 pupils from classrooms across West Lothian, on Microsoft Teams. The excitement continued in the chat, with a discussion of range of snacks left for Santa on Christmas Eve (all traditional treats of mince pies, cookies, milk and carrots for the reindeer).
The story even ended with an exciting visit from a ‘real life elf’!
The event was a wonderful way to celebrate the season, connect schools across West Lothian, and share the joy of storytelling.
Thank you to all the schools who joined us for this festive occasion – and to Hawkhill Primary for hosting such a memorable event!
