Last weekend, Greg Clarke and I ran a weekend activity for boarders making decorative Christmas crackers. Students have been participating in lots of Christmas craft activities at school recently – Greg worked with the same group of students pictured here before long leave to make decorative boxes for Christmas presents – and in many of the activities, students have been working to support the Winter Wonderland event that Katie McBride has planned for the last week of term. Last weekend, we made lino cuts with various Christmas designs and every member of the group printed a sheet of wrapping paper, with some making Christmas cards as well.
