# Something strange is going on in Cross Fell!

Cross Fell were really surprised when they came into school this morning and discovered that we had been visited by some Reindeers during the night! We found that they had nibbled our carrots and left us a very cheeky elf called Sparkles who is here with us until Christmas as he has heard how fantastic we are at looking after people and helping them to learn a host of wonderful things. It certainly was a surprise to catch them on video! Who knows what will happen next?
