C H R I S A CHRISTMAS SCENE By JOHN VAN GERWEN Grade 6 - Precious Blood The wind whistles past the trees, And snowflakes pack up with the breeze, A rabbit hops across the snow, While howling winds will fiercely blow. A coyote breaks the midnight silence, While graceful deer jump o'er the fence, The moon is up, the stars are bright, All praise to God, 'tis Christmas night. A wandering dog will roam the wood, While horses whinny as they should, A church is seen upon the horizon, By roaming herds of the scarce bison. All creatures of nature waken on this day, And praise God in their own special way, They run around and have no fear, They seem to sense that Christ is here. SANTA CLAUS By EARL PFAFF Gr. 5 — Stephen Central Santa Claus will ride tonight, Upon another happy flight, And every house that he will meet, He'll go inside and have a feast. He'll ride the air without a care, And snitch a cookie here and there. But when his belly through the chimney pokes You'll know he's read a few of your jokes So remember children when Christmas does come, Go to bed early for dad and mom, But it doesn't matter if your a girl or boy, Because under your tree you'll find a toy. CHRISTMAS IN KOREA By CHARLENE HANCOCK ()trade 7 Do you realize that Christmas all over the world is not the same? In Korea the children are lucky if they get some decent clothes to wear. So when you Open your gifts on Christmas Day give a thought to those more unfortunate than yourself. CHRISTMAS IN AUSTRALIA By SHERRY NADON Grade 6 - JAL) McCurdy At Christmas time in Australia, them is no snow on the ground. It is very hot there instead. In fact it is summer for them. On Christmas Eve all the children in a village get together and form a parade. At the lead there are the three Kings who found Jesus in His manger. The session hold candles and parade around singing Christmas carols. On Christmas Day, after the family opens their presents, they pack a Christmas dinner and WHAT DOES CHRISTMAS M By HOT ELAYNFIARO Grade 8 — Exeter Have you ever stopped to ask yourself, What Christmas really means? Is it just a pretty time of year, When snow makes beautiful scenes? Or is it when you put up a tree, And place gifts under for all to see? When we think of all these joys, We forget about one small boy. This child was born so late one day, In a stable, far away, They laid him in a bed of straw, While animals looked on in awe. Three wisemen came, and shepherds too, To give the Babe gifts of well-to-do They brought him Incense, Gold and Myrrh While shepherds gave him gifts So otfhfinurk. on Christmas .Day of the boy, Who brought to this world, peace and joy; And remember him always every day The Babe that was born so far away. CHRISTMAS ACROSTIC CHRISTMAS By Cathy Vriese Grade 5 — Exeter Carols are so fun to sing, Holly is a pretty thing, Reindeers gallop very fast Is-rael is plenty past. Snow what we play in day, T Turkey is so yummy, I say! M Mary was so nice and soft, A Animals sniff around the loft, S Stockings all put up late at night. I look at these things what I see about, Oh graceous (I say) what a pleasant sight!! spend a day at the beach. This is how they spend Christmas in Australia. By RUTH ZIELMAN Grade 7 Stephen Central When Christmas comes around every year, I always think of what Christmas is like in more unfortunate countries. What about the little children in Vietnam and 13iafara? Do they receive gifts as fine as ours in Canada? I wonder who thinks about them. THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS IN MY VERSION By PETE ARMSTRONG Grade 8 — Exeter The night before Christmas and all through the town, There was such a racket that kno-one could frown. They were so selfish it was awful to see, And they had stockings the size of a tree. All of a sudden all lights went out, And I was actually in great doubt. I was so scarred and frightened so much, I ran up stairs and got into dutch. After jumping in bed and covering up, I got courage to see what was u . I pee p ked out the window to see what was doing, But then in the sky I heard cows mooing. It took just a minute or even a flash, For me to see something go dash. I knew in a minute what it must be, Because the driver said Hee Hee Hee. It was Saint Nick of course, I could tell, Because of his nose was just like a bell. Down the chimney with a sudden crash, I saw Saint Nick all covered with ash. He went to the stocking and just filled the toe, But all there was, was mud and doe. He went up the chimney and with a crash, He said one word and that was "dash". Away he went and I heard him say Merry Christmas to you and have a happy day. CH RISTMAS By RICHARD FINKBEINER Grade 7 Stephen Central ChriStrnaS is a wonderful time; With a -bell that has a chime;.. Christmas is so colourful; Christmas is so wonderful; Burn and burn the wonderfuel; Give oh give her the jewel; Christmas means sp much to me; With some gifts underneath the tree. CHRISTMAS IN YEAR 2000 By VALERIE SWEET Grade 7 — Exeter Here he comes flying through the air on his jet pack. In his psychedelic red and white elephant pants and Nerhu jacket, Santa pushes a button and then! The roof of all things, opens up. He gives the children, phaser guns, transported rooms, spacecrafts, computer dolls, highways in space and ANYTHING else they wanted. Soon he leaves the deleriously children, and teleports back to his home on Talos VI, Can you wait to get to the year 2000? Another name for this fun and decoration, Is called a celebration. SAMEL DE CHAMPLAIN By HOWARD JONES Grade 6 — Exeter It was Christmas Eve 1605 at the habitation in Port Royal and we had a merry time. Then somebody crawled through the window and asked if he could stay over night. It was an Indian boy named Jimmey John. I said, "Yes", and he fell asleep on the kitchen floor. After a few hours we all went to bed thinking about the boy. The next morning it was Christmas. The little boy woke up first, to find some food. He looked and looked for food. He woke John up and asked for food. Then everybody woke up and stared at him. He said, "You got food'?" So we gave him food and he ate and ate. Jimmy John said, "Thank you for my food. It is my first Christmas present on Christmas day." Then we all felt sad we decided to keep him for little chores around the habitation. 144 um s &ow, Me iew avtatoad And A Most Happy And Safe Holiday Season FROM THE ENTIRE STAFF • Stan Love • Paul McKnight • Len McKnight • Dean McKnight Len McKnight g Sons MEN'S WEAR liosici,a14.05,Rir 12frtasviizsAavNizteatsizosikaiitiramozw.o. CHRISTMAS IN OTHER LANDS By SHELLEY WEBER Grade 8 — Stephen Central. Christmas will soon be here again and the rush of Christmas shopping begins. For most little boys and girls Christmas Means recieving fancy dolls, trains, trucks and other enjoyable toys on Christmas morning. Since we get so many nice things in our country we don't seem to realize how unfortunate some children are in foreign lands. Wars are going on and in some places little children have no food to eat or warm clothes to wear, When these children wake Up on Christmas morning they do not have any gifts to open or they don't have a big Christmas dinner with turkey and pudding, like we do in our country. These children do not know what a nice Christmas is like. Maybe you and I could help those unfortunate children by sending some thing we don't use any more and help make their Christmas more enjoyable.
