Early years will be singing a song about the book

We would like all children to dress as Elves for the performance and so children can wear red or green clothes. We will make hats and elf ears for the children in class as part of our Christmas activities. Please do not buy anything special for the costume but try to use clothes you already have as we try to support sustainability and reuse and recycle in our effort to raise awareness of environmental issues.
