www.insideHALTON.com | OAKVILLE BEAVER | Friday, December 19, 2014 | 28 A Child's Christmas Dear readers, This edition of the annual Oakville Beaver A Child's Christmas features the stories and drawings of students from St. James and St. Joseph Catholic elementary schools in Oakville. The students in Mrs. Di Felice's Grade 3 class from St. Joseph were asked to write and draw a picture about their Christmas wish this year. The students in Mrs. Salvatore's Grade 1 class and Mr. Porto's Grade 3 class from St. James wrote on the subject of what Christmas means to them. The responses are humorous, heart-warming and memorable. Kindergarten students in teacher Mrs. Emma Iapichino and RECE Mrs. Isabelle Lepore's class were asked to draw what Christmas means to them. Again, the results are delightful. We hope you enjoy these pages full of joy, hope and the innocence of little ones as much as we do.
