At bedtime my 5 year old has asked if I want to know what she has put her "school letter to Santa."
Today, with just over a week to go until they break up, and in a very low income area where many will be saving up for gifts, or using charities for support, school have decided it would be a good idea to get the kids to do a letter to Father Christmas.
And not tell us either that they have done it or what they have put in it.
I now recall they did it last year too but I let it go and luckily my DD asked for the same thing. She got a reply "from Santa" clearly written by a year 6, but was too young to wonder why he had replied twice (we had done the post office one already.)
This time she has asked for different things.
I have told her it's too late and cheeky to send a second letter but what the heck are school thinking?
Not to mention families who don't celebrate Christmas, or don't "do" Father Christmas.
