Then all the little children would get their gifts. It's not fair if you make one mistake in the year and just because of that mistake you don't get any presents. Also. Santa doesn't realize that he is forgetting about people, for example, the poor people and the homeless. Do you think it is fair that on Christmas they wake up and there are no presents? If everyone in the world that receives presents gave one of their presents to a poor child then they would help someone feel joyous. We are all so lucky to have a roof over our heads and food on the table. Some people have neither. So, if I went Santa Claus I would do good for this world by making sure that all the little boys and girls received Christmas gifts. Braden Connolly Si James Grade 7 If I were Santa Claus, I would give presents to everyone in the world. When you think about it, poor people are/suffering and they don't have what they need. If I was Santa I would give them the things they need to help keep them warm and healthy. How could Santa be so rude • and give presents to everyone and forget about the poc: kids? Think of all the miserable, unhappy, and heartbroken kids who have never received a special Christmas gift. So if I were Santa, next year I would give presents to everyone in the world, especially the poor and needy. Connie Finlayson St. James Grade '7 If I were Santa Claus, the first thing I would change would be to get rid of the `naughty and nice' list. I would do this because it isn't fair for the children who are sinister not to get presents. They might have just been having a bad year. Maybe things turned out wrong when they were trying to help or do good. It also isn't fair because if they didn't get presents and all their pals did, they wouldn't be able to show off their presents and all their pals did, they wouldn't be able to show off their presents or play with them with their friends. That would make them sorrowful. I would also choose a different animal to pull the sled every year. For example: I would have bears pull the sled this year, and cows pull the sled next year. After a while, the reindeer will get feeble and different animals might be needed anyway. I would also create different designs and colours for my sled, so that it will look unique and breathtaking. 1 would get a different suit colour, thus making my appearance more dazzling. These are a few of the things I would do if I were Santa Claus. Christoph Hundt St. James Grade 7 If I were Santa I would say, "Let's reminisce the real reason behind Christmas Day. It is Jesus' birthday. Sometimes when we think of Christmas as presents, candy and enjoyable things like that. But if you will just realize that Christmas is about Jesus you will find that you are happier than before. So I am telling you now, don't just think about 'me' and presents, but think about Jesus' birthday too. If every Christmas I have to keep telling certain people about Jesus' birthday, that Christmas is not just about presents, then those people might not get the presents that they want. Or maybe even none. So now, after reading my letter hopefully you will find deep down in your heart the real meaning of what Christmas is really about!" Haden Campbell St. James Grade 7 If I were Santa everyone in the world would get something and if they were poor they would get something very special. I would give each child the same amount of gifts. I would do that because in God's eyes we are all equal, even if some of us are obnoxious, nasty, or unpleasant. For the nasty, sinister and evil ones, I would write a note. It would say to them to be better next year or they won't get any gifts. That is what I would do if I were Santa. Andrea S. St. James Grade 7 / wou/d give the gift of love, as Santa If I were Santa Claus I would make sure that everyone would have presents at Christmas time. It wouldn't matter what colour you were, when you were born, where you live, or what you do. I would make sure that everyone would get some kind of present and most of all 1 would make sure they received the most beautiful present of all, the gift of love. It doesn't matter if you have a lot of money, everyone can afford love. So this Christmas, even if you don't have a lot of presents, or any physical presents, remember there is still one gift under the tree that maybe you haven't noticed...the gift of love. Brandon McGavin St. James Grade 7 If I were Santa Claus I would...get another animal to pull the sleigh, for example a bear, or an elephant. I feel that way because the reindeer get tired after a little while. Also a bear is stronger and faster through the snow. The children like the elepbants so much I would give them all a ride through the snow. Elephants are good at cleaning also and Mrs. Claus could have a day off.
