The arrival of cheeky elf heralds the start of advent in RS. He sets us a challenge each morning. When Amiah saw how messy the snow was and picked up the phone, we wondered if she was calling elf headquarters to ask them to come and take him back!

Advent books

Thank you to everyone, who sent in a book for our advent calendar of stories. The children are really enjoying sharing them with their friends. It is not too late to send a book in if you have not done so already. The book will come home as soon as we have read it.

Advent kindness

Each morning, the children suggest an act of kindness to add to our advent calendar. This weekend, you can look forward to the children helping you with the cooking and making you a card as they have pledged to undertake kind acts at home too.

Making snowmen

We have been building the muscles in our fingers by using the scissors and hole punches to create snowman pictures.

We would love to see any photos of how you are preparing for Christmas at home.
