We Found the Ultimate Christmas Present! Guess what Seahorse Class walked into this morning? Elvis the Elf seems to be getting excited about Christmas morning and decided to turn himself and his friends into giant Christmas Presents! He's wrapped himself, the Everywhere Bear, Fred the frog and a toy dinosaur in bright red paper and sparkling tinsel. Look how tightly wrapped they are! It looks like he had a great time using the tinsel to decorate everything around them too! What an imaginative (and messy!) elf! #ElvisTheElf #ChristmasPresents #ElfMischief #FestiveFun #SeahorseClass #ClassroomSurprise #Tinsel Diocese of Salisbury Academy Trust

Starfish Class Explore Local History! Starfish class had an amazing trip to the Lyme Regis Museum, diving into the incredible story of Mary Anning, the famous fossil hunter. The children discovered fascinating facts about her extraordinary life and explored a range of stunning fossils. They even visited Mary Anning's statue and her grave, bringing her story to life in a truly memorable way. This special day has inspired our young learners to dream big and follow in Mary Anning's footsteps! #LocalHistory #MaryAnning #LymeRegis #StarfishClass #LearningBeyondTheClassroom Diocese of Salisbury Academy Trust

We've Been TP-ed! Seahorse Class, we might need a search and rescue team this morning! It looks like Elvis the Elf decided we needed a blizzard of toilet paper to really set the Christmas mood! We found him sitting proudly on the cupboard, having wrapped the entire classroomthe map, the teddy bear, the tree, the beams, and everything in between! He must have been flying around the room all night to get this much "decorating" done! We think it's time to teach Elvis how to use the other kind of festive streamers! #ElvisTheElf #ElfMischief #TPChaos #ClassroomSurprise #SeahorseClass #ElfOnTheShelf #MessyFun Diocese of Salisbury Academy Trust

A Splash of Colour! It looks like Elvis the Elf decided to join in with the Seahorse Class's favourite activity this morningcoloring! We found him sitting neatly at the table, with a huge array of pencils scattered everywhere, working hard on a detailed coloring sheet. He seems to be sticking to the blues and reds so far, but with that many pencils, the possibilities are endless! The class will definitely have enough pencils to share for the rest of the day! We hope Elvis cleans up this big mess he made before tomorrow! #ElvisTheElf #ColoringFun #PencilChaos #SeahorseClass #ClassroomFun #ElfOnTheShelf #GetCreative Diocese of Salisbury Academy Trust

Story Time with Elvis and Rodger! Shhh! Don't disturb our quiet reader! This morning, Seahorse Class found Elvis the Elf cuddled up with our giant teddy bear and a few of his toy friends, completely engrossed in Rodger's story book! It looks like they are enjoying the festive book "Meerkat Christmas" we love that! We hope they left us a bookmark so we can finish the story later! #ElvisTheElf #StoryTime #ClassroomLibrary #RodgersBook #SeahorseClass #ElfOnTheShelf #ReadingIsFun aDiocese of Salisbury Academy Trust
