Elves start spreading of Christmas cheer

Students from John Paul II donned elf costumes and took to the streets, to hand out candy canes, sing carols, and wish passersby a Merry Christmas.

It was the kickoff to spreading holiday cheer, as the students hit downtown North Battleford Tuesday, Nov. 22.

For Grade 8 student Jayden Nelson, the first day was a fantastic experience.

“It’s great to go around, and spreading Christmas cheer and going into the businesses singing Christmas carols. It was just a great overall experience,” she said. “It was nice to see people smiling and happy.”
