Santa is coming to town as school breaks for the year.
Rudolf and his crew have the day off, but the good news is that Santa will be arriving in a very special FIRE TRUCK that will stay on the street for the little ones to explore and take photos in.
We told Santa that the kids in our precinct have been very well behaved this year, so he let us know that he will bring his special face painter and balloon twister for some extra fun for children to enjoy!
Santa also told us to tell the children that if they continue to be good, they might just end up with a very special present all the way from the South Pole!
Come and say hello and take some photos with Santa and his entertaining Elf. He is arriving at 4.30 and will be there until 6.30 so all the kids in the neighbourhood can visit.
