30 Sleeps Until Christmas


Today we visited Santa's website.
He has a Naughty and Nice list, and we typed in some children's names to check what list they were on.
Try it at home.
Remember to check back for updates - Santa's spies are out and about watching us.

Yakkety Yak Show

On Tuesday we were lucky enough to have a visit from some of the first year students from NASDA (National Academy of Singing and Dramatic Art).

Here is a recount of their wonderful show...

The Yakkety Yak Show
By Alesha

On Tuesday we went to the show.  It was in the hall.  At high school they were bullies.  Then the teacher came out.  He saw the kids being bullies.  He put them in detention and all of them had to stand on a line.  Jacob got some chairs to sit on.  One of the girls wanted to sit down but Jacob didn't let her sit.  The cleaner put up a sign, it had "no touching" but they touched it.  They had to play the games.  The game master was telling lies.  The first game was a ninja game.  Stevie was in versing a girl.  Stevie got a black eye, but it was make up.  I liked Lady Ga Ga's shoes.  Then they went to the next game.  Everybody had to find a sword.  Jacob wanted to give the sword to his friends but he didn't.  He gave it to her.  I liked her outfit.  Jacob got the prize but it was the fifteenth and he got eaten up from the mimic.  Then his friends came and pulled him out.  Then they went back through the tv.  I loved the mimic eating Jacob and xbox is bad.
