The room was filled with excitement as Santa greeted everyone with a warm smile and a hearty “Ho Ho Ho!” Santa spent time answering the children’s curious questions during a fun **Q&A session**. From “Do reindeers eat carrots?” to “Can Elves be on the naughty list? Santa shared delightful secrets from the North Pole. He also told a short, enchanting story about his mischievous elf who loves adventures and sometimes gets into a little trouble while helping Santa prepare for Christmas. To make the evening even more magical, Santa gifted each child a special bag of **reindeer food**—perfect for sprinkling outside on Christmas Eve to guide the reindeer to their homes. Before leaving, Santa shared an important message: **“Remember to be kind and respectful to everyone. That’s the best way to stay on the Good List!”** [Year 4](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/year-4) [SMSC & Cultural Capital](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/smsc-cultural-capital) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/100x100c/blog/thumbnail_IMG_0234.jpg)](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2025-12-18-03-52-lighting-up-learning-our-torch-making-adventure) Previous ### [Lighting Up Learning: Our Torch-Making Adventure](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2025-12-18-03-52-lighting-up-learning-our-torch-making-adventure) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/100x100c/blog/WhatsApp_Image_2026-01-08_at_19.32.00.jpeg)](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2025-12-18-07-42-christmas-party) Next ### [Christmas Party ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2025-12-18-07-42-christmas-party) ### School Life - [Brookside Blog ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog) - [News](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/news) - [Events](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/events) - [Photograph Galleries ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/photo-galleries) - [School Council](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/school-council) - [After-School Clubs ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/after-school-clubs) - [KIDZ Club](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/kidz-club) - [Calendar](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/calendar) - [Newsletters](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/information-for-parents/newsletters-2026-2027) - [Mental Health ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/mental-health) ##### Location Rostherne Avenue Great Sutton Cheshire CH66 2EE ##### Contact Us 0151 558 1123 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/groups/brooksideprimary/) © Copyright 2014–2026 Brookside Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
