Jingles Comes to Room 11

On Monday morning, we came in all ready for the week’s work ahead when we were met with a very big surprise…… JINGLES!!!! We had heard that he had come and caused mischief in other people’s classroom and knew some day he was on his way to room 11, but we did not expect him first thing on a Monday morning.

When we came in, we noticed Ms O’ Riordan’s and Tina’s chairs were all wrapped in toilet paper. Then, when we looked up on the whiteboard, hanging up high was our two advent calendars covered in tissue paper and our book we are reading at the moment, ‘Rover Saves Christmas’, stuck to the board upside down. He had written on the board in his funny jingly writing that he was going to eat all the chocolate in our advent calendars and was stealing our book. We could not believe our eyes and didn’t know what to do. Luckily, Ms O Riordan found a note on her desk from Jingles saying: we will get our advent calendars and book back if we complete these 5 jobs:

1. Write 10 ways to make Santa’s good list.
2. Write a recipe for the nicest hot chocolate in the world.
3. Write a poem entitled ‘Jingles the Bestie Elfie’.
4. Practice for the carol service.
5. (Most importantly) Give Ms O Riordan a break

We worked really hard to get all our jobs done, went to see a nativity play and when we came back….. Jingles was gone!!!! and we got everything back. Thank you Jingles. Next time you come….. we will be ready for you!
