Santa visits Camphill!

19th Dec 2024

What a day we had on Thursday 19th December when Santa arrived in Camphill in the Community Search and Rescue vehicle! Everyone was so surprised to see Santa inside the vehicle and when we heard the CRS team had found Santa in trees and bushes and offered him a lift to Camphill we were so happy.

Santa arrived with tree branches still attached to him so Mrs McMaster and Andy, the Building Supervisor had to get him cleaned up and then he was ready to come into school.

Inside, Santa gave every pupil a Christmas drinks cup with a straw and there was even a chocolate inside! Santa then went into our disco and danced with the P3 and P4 pupils before heading down the corridors to see what the boys and girls were doing.

Mrs McMaster said thank you to Santa for coming and bringing all the presents. She also told Santa to thank all his helpers who also brought everyone a hat to wear and party food for the discos.

We all had a great day! And we hope (and thank) DJ Paul McKee had a great day too.........
