Dear Children,

I made a little stop in your lovely town last week to make a very special delivery.

One of my very special North Pole Mailboxes!

I have asked the lovely ladies at Century 21 to look after my mailbox until Christmas, and I am hoping to hear from all the children in town before Christmas Eve.

I am looking forward to replying to all your letters.

Don’t forget to leave your address on your letter so I can reply quickly!

I have given the girls at Century 21 some Reindeer food for you take a package of when you drop your letter in the mailbox.

Make sure you remember to leave your reindeer food out for Rudolph and his team on Christmas Eve.

They get very hungry on our long journey.

Now, there is also a very special present sack that I have left in the office, and I would be so delighted if you would like to ask Mum and Dad to buy something to leave in the bag when you come to visit my Mailbox.

You see, the girls at Century 21 are collecting presents for a very special place called Bear Cottage.

Lots of children who are not well have to stay in hospital over Christmas, and Bear Cottage looks after them and their siblings and families to make sure they feel loved.

There is no need to wrap these presents, my elves will do that!

A small, new, in package present from your favourite shop would be wonderful!

I hope to see all your letters arriving soon boys and girls, and I hope you are being good as we get ready for Christmas.

Keep an eye on your mailboxes for a letter from me soon.

Love Santa xx
