The children have had a busy time in Aistear this month. We learned all about the Post Office and Christmas. We read Christmas story books, said Christmas rhymes, sang Christmas songs, and of course, listened to the story of the First Christmas. The children made some cool lollipop stick decorations and snow globes. They also made stables for the First Christmas and decorated some Christmas Trees with baubles.
All of the children had a go in Santa's sleigh! They learned about what busy time of year it is for the Post Office and had great fun playing in the our very own Post Office. They got to post some cards and letters, pretend to be the post offic clerk and the postperson, and weighed parcels. Even the teachers got some post! We made some yummy Santa Claus treats which were gobbled up in no time!
Wishing you all a Happy Christmas and a Safe New Year,
