A catastrophe
By, WENDY GATEHOUSE
Grade 4

The night before Christmas
Santa was sad. The elves Harry,
'Pinker shoes, Big Nose, Larry
and Earny went to a snowball
fight with their girl friends and
weren't back yet.
Santa couldn't make all the
toys himself, what was he going
to do?, He called his wife Mrs.
Claus what are we going to do?,
honey bun.
The elves aren't back yet and
it's almost time to leave. That
night Santa, the reindeer and
'Mrs. Claus had to make all the
ys themselves. When the elves
ot back they were disappointed.
Christmas means
By SCOTT BOYD
Grade 5
J.A.D. McCurdy
Christmas means having fun.
—It means to be thankful for all
the gifts you get.
—And it means to be glad that
the baby Jesus was born.
—It means to be happy that God
gave us lovely things.
—It means to be happy that you
have friends.
—Christmas means to share and
share alike.
—And for the kids it means Santa
Claus on his way.
—It means Candy.
