ELF ON A SHELF - TUESDAY

SCOUT GOES ON HOLIDAY

I love Scout because Scout is cool and he hides in the classroom.  He is the best in the world.  Scout is on the tree today.  Scout is scary too and he is in the Whisper Island today.  I love Scout.

By Joel

Ahh... I love this vacation especially in Whisper Island at school.  I hope the children don't come in.  I'm so relaxed in the tree.  Maybe I should stay in the tree and stand here.  I hate to say, but it is noisy in the class but relaxing in Whisper Island.  I wish I could sleep here on the tree.

Today Scout hid in Whisper Island climbing a coconut tree at the beach.  It looks like he's trying to find a nice hard coconut so he can do the coconut drums.  Maybe he went to Hawaii for a vacation and then he went to the hot beach.  When he got there he had nothing to do because he's too little to swim so he just climbed a coconut tree and did the coconut drums.

ELF ON THE SHELF - MONDAY

Today our elf on the shelf has taken one of the teacher's candy canes and now he's trying to climb the shelf!  I can't believe that he'd take one of the teacher's things.  "How naughty is that?"  Scout is going to older and cheekier.  Oh no! I don't want him to take my stuff and tonight I'm going to look on my iPod and look on the Santa tracer app and see how Santa is going.

Emily gave Mrs Lunn a candy cane but Scout took it and ate it but before he got a small lick, Mrs Lunn came and stopped him so he used it for a grappling hook and he climbed up as fast as he could but Mrs Lunn caught the candy cane and dragged him around.  "Finally!" said Mrs Lunn.
By Riley S

Today Scout the elf is hanging on the teacher's cupboard.  Hanging on what?  Mrs Lunn's candy cane.  Who gave it to her?  Me!  I hope Mrs Lunn can still eat it!
By Emily

"I haven't eaten in days.  I suppose Mrs Lunn won't mind if I take a few nibbles or her candy cane.  Mmmm, this is delicious!  I might take a few more bites.  I realised it was all gone!  Ohh wait.  I know what I'll do.  I will buy a new one but I realised it wasn't the same brand."

ELF ON THE SHELF - THURSDAY

SCOUT THE TEACHER

Today Scout hid up high reading a book called Father Christmas heard a fart.  When the class heard Mrs Lunn say the name of the book, the whole class laughed!  I wonder where he will hide tomorrow.  I hope he wont be reading a very, very funny book!

ELF ON THE SHELF - WEDNESDAY

Scout's having a drink!

Welcome back to the Elf on the Shelf News...

We have some good news and funny news. 
First, we start with the good news.  Scout got his magic back!
Now, the funny news.  When I got to school, someone showed me where Scout is now and guess what... he is by his box that he came in and is drinking water from a very long straw!

Look where Scout is today!

"Santa, Santa! Quickly!  The people are starting to wake up!" 
"Alright, alright! I'm coming." said Santa.
All the people were waking up.  All of a sudden the elf started to fly.  He found the perfect hiding space.  Then... he got into the stickers.  In the morning, we saw him in the cupboard covered with stickers all over him!

By Darcy


Woosh! Up! Down! Loop de loop!
"I'm sorry.  I was just getting from Sarah's house to Father Christmas.  If you don't be good I will tell Santa.  My name is Scout."
After he was finished I said, "no, no.  Don't tell Santa because I have been good."
"If you have been good I won't tell Santa,"  replied Scout.

By Keira


Today someone touched Scout and now his magic has gone away.  Scout is really nice elf.   Scout is red and white.  He is in the teachers' cupboard next to some stickers.  In the night, Scout flies back to the North Pole and tells Santa if we're being good or not.  I wish that Scout gets better.  I'm sure he will because the person who touched hum is writing a sorry note.  He's also going to take a picture of him and Scout because if you give him a picture it will turn into Pixie dust so Scout can fly again.  That person is feeling really guilty and he said he won't do it again.

By Mia

We wonder where he will be tomorrow!

ELF ENGINEERING CHALLENGE

ELF ON THE SHELF WRITING

Today we found Scout our Elf on the phone.  Maybe Scout wants to talk to the other elves or say to Santa which kids are good and which are bad.  Every night, Scout flies away to Santa to tell him were the kids bad or good.  Then he flies back and hides in the classroom.  First time we found Scout on the shelf stuck in the sellotape but when no on saw him he got out of the sellotape and ended climbing up on top of the shelf.  When the teachers saw it they said "we will not help you get down because if you climbed up then you will be able to climb down."  But today we found him up on the phone because he wants to have a chat with the other elves.

My Elf hid on the game machine.  Today he hid on the drawers.  You have to name him in order for it to work.  Me Elf's name is Roodoll. JC's Elf wrapped the Christmas Tree with toilet paper.  At the end of the time with you, they are cheeky.  They even can have a bowl of marshmallows.

By Campbell


Woosh!  "Ha ha ha!  I toilet papered your Christmas tree!" said DJ my Elf.  Mum nearly called Santa.  She was fuming.  Her ears were as red as a stop light!
