Throughout December the children have identified what senses they use to recognise the signs which tell us that Christmas is coming.
‘I know it’s Christmas when we put our tree up and the elf comes and does cheeky stuff.’,
‘I can see lights and decorations everywhere.’
‘We open our calendars to countdown to Christmas day and eat a chocolate everyday.’
‘I know Christmas is going to be soon when it feels cold and it’s frosty and slippery outside. I need to wear my coat, hat and gloves everyday.’
The children also celebrated with a delicious Christmas dinner and Christmas party.
‘I love eating yummy turkey and sausages with my Christmas dinner.’
‘I can’t wait to hear my cracker go bang and put my party hat on.’
‘I like the smell of hot chocolate when it’s cold outside’
‘My favourite songs are Christmas songs, I like to sing along to them and dance.’
Finally, the children learnt about why Christians celebrate Christmas, performing a traditional nativity.
