A Christmas dream 1
by Doug MacGregor
Up in bed
Snuggled up tight,
A child slaps
On Christmas night
Dreaming of the joys
Father Christmas will ring,
Listening to sleigh bells
Gointg ring -ding -a -ling.
Imagine this child's dreamt
And howit shines bright
In this child's spirit
On this holy night.

The true meaning
of Christmas
by Cassandra Martin
St. Patrick's, Lucan
The true meaning of Christmas
was when the Christ Child was
born. It was also when the Angel
told Mary that she was to give birth
to the Son of God. She was so glad
that she told her cousin Elizabeth.
Mary also told Elizabeth she would
also give birth to a baby boy. A
little bit Tater on, Mary met Joseph.
He was going to be the father of Je-
sus. When they thought the baby
-
was going to come soon, they de-
cided that, they should start looking
for a place to give birth to him.
They cduldn't find a place. So they
had to go into Stable. Then He
was born. That true meaning
of Christmas.

A day without Santa
by Krista vSchilbe
Zurich P.S.
There was just a week left before
Christmas holidays, the elves were
working hard. Mrs. Claus was bak-
ing Christmas cookies for Santa and
the elves when she heard Santa call
for someone, "Come here hurry" so
Mrs. Claus jumped up and ran up-
stairs to see what was wrong with
Santa. She went into their room and
she said "elves elves hurry Santa
has the flu. Bring a pail for him".
Oh why did Santa have to get the
flu just before Christmas. Oh don't
worry about Santa. He'll be,,just
fine. You elves go back to work.
Okay, if Santa has the flu let's get
all the toys made. Okay, let's get to
work. Mrs. Claus told Santa that he
just needed some sleep. Around sup-
per time Santa woke up and found a
big box beside him. The elves said
"open it Santa". So Santa opened it
and found a wooden reindeer.
"Thank you elves. You got all- the
toys made for me". "Santa here is
your soup". "Thank you very
much". The days went past fast and
there was just one day till Santa had
to go. But Santa was getting better
a little each day. Soon it was time
to go and Mrs. Claus was getting
ready to go and Santa came down
the stairs with his red suit on. I'm -
ready to go. "Yah" said the elves.
I'm so glad you're alright Santa.
"Thank you dear. You helped me.
You gave me medicine and nice hot
soup. Thank you. Good Bye".

I is for illness Jesus saves us from
S is for the star that shepherds fol-
lowed to sec the Lord Jesus Christ
T is for the town called Bethlehem
where Jesus the son was born
M is for Mary mother of the son
A is' for Angels that sang a sweet
song
S is for sadness we have sometime
but Jesus can make us be happy
again.
Yes He Lan
Christmas
By Rayna Milne
Grade 3, Z.P.S.
One night, in Santa's Work Shop,
the Elves saw that outside one of the
reindeer was gone. One Elf counted,
"One, two, three, four, five, six, _
seven, eight". Then he said out their
names, "Prancer, Donner, Blitzen,
Dasher, Dancer, Comet, Rudolph
and Cupid. Where was Vixen? No-
body knew. "Vixen", one of the
Elves called. Thcn another Elf said,
"Here he is". He's 'sleeping in the
Work Shop". Everybody rushed to
the Work Shop, and there was Vix-
en. Everybody was glad. So all the
presents were delivered on time. The
end.
