Hi everyone! Even though Thanksgiving has not passed yet, the Christmas season is already in full swing as the St. Patrick's Christmas Fair Elves are hard at work prepping for our Christmas Fair on Friday, December 1st.
This annual event is a long-standing school tradition and a favorite of children and parents alike. On this day each year, the spirit of Christmas fills the halls of our school as parents/grandparents join their children at an appointed time in the school lobby and cafeteria to shop for Christmas crafts, personalized ornaments, plates, mugs, fun novelties, jewelry, etc. There are raffles & contests to take part in, yummy goodies for sale in our kitchen (including bagels) and Santa will make a special stop in our school that day to take pictures with all the children.
Don't forget to pre-order personalized Elf/Santa Hats or Stockings. Also, let us help you deck your halls at home! We order your Christmas Wreath & pointsettias for you and you can pick them up on the day of the Christmas Fair! Printable order forms can be found attached to this email or on the Parent Org Christmas Fair web page (here).
We hope to see you there!
