Santa time
There were so many great photos of children meeting Santa Claus at the Conception Bay South Salvation Army’s fundraiser for the 11th Annual Riley Mercer Toy Drive that we were disappointed we couldn’t fit all of them in our print edition. So here are some more below, along with Letters to Santa that came in past our deadline from some special children. We forwarded them to the North Pole right away and Santa assured us that he received the letters in time.
Dear Santa : Can you believe it, Christmas time is here again. I’m really excited for this year. My name is Kiah, I’m 5 years old, in kindergarten and I love school so much. My teacher is Mr. Noonan. He is the best teacher ever and I hope you can bring him something nice. I have been a really good girl this year. I clean my room and help Mama Rose with the dishes. I would love a Barbie Camper with the purple slide, Magic Mixes, Clothes, and a few surprises. Please bring Mama Rose, my godmother Denika, Mom Ashley, “Uncle” Rod, Kali, the bestest Nanny Wadden ever and uncles James and Brad something really special. Oh please don’t forget my 2 kitty cats Jingles and Puss with some toys with feathers and most importantly please send poppy Wadden lots of hugs and kisses. We miss him so much. Thankyou for all my gifts last year. I will leave some milk and cookies by the tree for you.
Love Kiah P., St. John’s, NL
Dear Santa
Hi, how are you all up in the North Pole? My name is Portia and I have been trying to be so good but you already know that because you’re just like my Aunt Rose and Nanny Wadden, you know and find out everything, ha ha. This year for Christmas I would love a vanity table, makeup, a gold ring and some prizes please. Thank you so much for all my gifts last year. Please be good to my dad, mom, my sissy Ellie, Raquel and the rest of my family. Have a safe flight. I will leave some treats by the tree for you.

How are you? My name is Kali and I’ve been good this year. You all must be so busy up in the North Pole and I bet Ms. Claus has some yummie cookies baked by now. This year Santa I would love some surprises and clothes. Thanks for all my gifts last year. Please bring something nice to my mom, dad, Kiah, Nanny Wadden and the rest of my family. I hope you have a safe flight here and I will leave some Oreos, milk, and carrots for you and the reindeer

Its Ellie here again this year, I am so excited that Christmas is here again. I’m almost 9 years old and in grade 4. How is the weather your way? So far we have no snow yet.

I loved all my gifts you brought last year, thank you so much. I will leave some cookies and milk out for you.
