00:00Sit next to Santa.
00:02Hi.
00:04Come in.
00:08Ellie, big cheese.
00:10Take your hands away.
00:12Good girl.
00:14What do you want, Santa?
00:24You step out.
00:26Okay, and Mrs Cassie, just tell me what Elf Day is all about then, please.
00:32Elf Day is our favourite day in the Plainsform calendar.
00:36It's where we turn Plainsform Academy into an elf school.
00:40So every member of staff dresses up as an elf.
00:44The children take part in some lovely activities.
00:46And of course we have Mr and Mrs Santa Claus here as well.
00:50Who arrived in a Porsche this year.
00:52Grandfather Porsche.
00:54And so what are some of the activities the kids will be doing then?
00:58They have hot chocolate and marshmallows.
01:00And then they make snowmen marshmallows.
01:04They can decorate those.
01:06In the classroom they make Christmas cards, calendars.
01:10Lots of lovely festive activities to get them in the mood for Santa.
01:14I understand you've invited the local playgroup along as well, is that right?
01:18Yes, we did.
01:20We asked the Youth Almighty children's group to attend.
01:24And they absolutely love it.
01:26So they're on the yard greeting Santa and Mrs Claus.
01:30And then they go and visit the man himself who's in our shed.
01:50I love marshmallows.
01:54OK then Marnie, how excited are you that it's elf day today then?
01:58So excited.
02:00And what are some of the things you like doing on elf day?
02:02Meeting Santa and Christmas and getting all the presents.
02:08And do you like dressing up as an elf?
02:10Yes.
02:12And what about you Dottie, what's the best thing for you about elf day?
02:14Meeting Santa as well.
02:16You get to see everyone in the elf garments all dressed up.
02:18And everyone just feeling nice and Christmassy.
02:22Have you got your list ready to tell me what you want for Christmas?
02:24Yes.
02:26Have you been good?
02:28Yes.
02:30OK, and Santa, have all the kids been telling you what they want for Christmas?
02:32Oh, we've got lots of things on the list this year.
02:34Lots of excited children.
02:36Lots of people on the good list, but there's one or two on the naughty list as well.
02:38Are you looking forward to the big day?
02:40We can't wait. Me and Mrs Claus are over the moon.
02:42We're looking forward to it.
