Elf Day

One of the unique feautres of Hamilton Grammar is the fun Elf Day which happens annually.

Elfs are S6 pupils dressed up as Santa's Little Helper's who are basically slaves for the day! Mind you each Department has to bid for these elfs at a charity auction. Our Faculty spend a few quid this year to secure EIGHT elves!

They did a grand job...

building a bookcase
cleaning the shelves
laminating filing cabinets
labelling trays
comb-binding SG Admin booklets
cleaning out the cupboard/studio
going for lunches
collecting the calendar for Miss Dunlop
and general errands

Some other slave drivers had them washing cars or having to hop around all day!

I certainly enjoyed Friday, and I think the elves did. Mind you there were a few elves who were posted 'missing'... hiding in the S6 area in the afternoon because they were tired!

Over £600 was raised for the S6 charity 2009-10.

Every school should have an Elf Day!
