Meldreth Matters, December 2020

Meldreth Primary School Merry Christmas everyone, from all of us here at the Primary School!

I asked the children three questions ahead of the Christmas season in this most peculiar of years.

Please read on, to see the questions and a selection of the children’s responses.

What would you like for Christmas?

I would really like to receive a kitten for Christmas, but I know it’s a bit unrealistic because I’ve already got two dogs! Imogen For Christmas, I would like some books because I love reading; a VR (virtual reality) headset, because the VR world is so magical and I could use it with all my friends. I’d also like a 30cm tall bubble gum machine, because I really like bubble gum! Maya This is what I would like for Christmas; Dog (never going to happen); Phone (probably not) Turtle (No); Skink (Never) .......... (a skink is a snake with legs); Horse (Never ever ever ever) Florence I would like a guitar because my dad has a guitar, so then we could play together. Alicia I would like a Nimbus 2000 (or maybe a Firebolt) to fly around on and play Quidditch with. I want it to be a long pine-cone broom, which is smooth and not rough. I would like it to have light brown, even bristles, with a gold ribbon around it. I would also love to have a wand with spruce-green vines hanging off it. I would give all my friends a Nimbus 2000 too, so they can play Quidditch with me!

I’d like an electric train set and trees with little figures and things like trees….basically a small model of Meldreth that I could play with. Iris The present I would like to receive is a litter picker. I’d like to be a litter picker for my job because I really want to help the environment. Harry And what would YOU like to give to someone else?

I would like to give my brother a new X Box because I know he really wants one. Toby C 17
