# Friday 8th December 2017

   8 December 2017   [Mrs Gurney](https://www.stakesbyschool.net/blog/author/sharon)   [Elm Class](https://www.stakesbyschool.net/blog/category/elm-class)

Christmas has well and truely arrived in Elm class!

The children have been busy decorating the classroom and helping out with jobs for the school fair, in between working very hard and completing assessments in the classroom!

We had a visitor on Thursday. #ThatPoetryBloke came to do a whole school assembly and a workshop with Elm and Oak classes. We got to ask questions and help with rhyming and the structure of poems. A fabulous morning was had by all!
