The Magic of Christmas

Newly appointed Conductive Education Manager Barbara Csepcsenyi reports on the children’s 2008 Christmas party held at Focus 2000 headquarters. The day was full of excitement featuring magic shows, special performances by the pupils of Conductive Education and a visit from dear old Santa himself.
Barbara describes the magic of the day below.

“On Wednesday 17 December we had our Christmas Party as the final event this year. What a party it was!

The Starfish Magic Show started off our merrymaking. It was a mixture of lively music, interactive stories and sing-along songs. The children enjoyed every minute of it; they could not hide the grin on their faces.
We had catchy songs to sing and funny actions to join in with.

Thank so much Starfish Magic; we all had a wonderful time. After the show Santa arrived in his red suit, and as a surprise the children from our Kindergarten and Young Walking Class put on a little show. They all dressed up as little bakers, with a hat and apron on, for the Gingerbread man story. We also sang Christmas Carols together with the families.

Santa gave presents to all the children and then we all enjoyed lunch together.

See you all in the New Year.”

Barbara
