The Elves Have Come To Visit!

 

On Monday morning we were very surprised to see that some elves had arrived in the Foundation and Year 1 classrooms! We received a letter from Santa to let us know that these elves had a very important job to do and that was to keep us on the Nice List this Christmas. He also told us that we could name our special elves. We voted and Foundation chose Frosty and Year 1 chose Candy Cane. Each day we have loved searching for the elves and seeing what mischief they have got up to!

Year 3/4 C

As the year is coming to an end, the ¾ students have reflected on their year and favourite memories at St James.    Here is what 3/4C wrote.  

Camille B

My favorite memories of this year were the swimming carnival and zoo snooze. I really liked the swimming carnival, I entered in almost every race. Zoo snoozing was really fun! I loved watching the animals at night and sleeping in the tents. 

Ethan C

One of my favourite memories at St James was when me and Eddie speedruned school in half an hour in remote learning, also I really liked bike camp where we stayed up till late at night talking and partying,  we also did mini golf and activities, including lolly shop, rock climbing and archery. The Swimming carnival was also great with blue winning and having fun.

Delilah C

I had lots of great memories this year but one of my favorite memories is we had the swimming carnival, everyone had lots of fun and was supportive of each other. It was a great day and we all got ribbons. I went to every event that I could go to. Blue house won by two points.

Audrey C

One of my favorite memories at St James was when we were in Year 1 on our way to swimming, we had to be quiet and if we didn't talk and at the end of the swimming lessons we would get an ice cream bar. One of my other memories was in Prep when we had pyjama day and had hot chocolate. Mrs Busch tried to tell us not to spill it but it didn't really work. This year I loved the swimming carnival, green lost by 2 points.
