Students Left Sobbing After Vicar Says Santa Claus Is Not Real At Hampsemploy School

Write a headline for this: With Christmas only a scant days away, guideers at a primary school in Hampsemploy, UK thought it would be a fantastic opportunity to ask the local vicar to convey understandledge about the festival, the birth of Jesus and rcontent customs. The decision, however, soon turned out to be a misget as the vicar ended up spoiling Christmas for the little kids who were robbed of their precious belief in Santa Claus. Rev Dr Paul Chamberlain, insertressing a group of 10 and 11-year-elderlys at the Lee-on-the-Solent Junior School, shelp Father Christmas was not authentic, inserting that their parents bought their currents and ate the biscuits left out for Santa.

“You’re all year six, now let’s be authentic, Santa isn’t authentic,” Rev Chamberlain telderly the children during the lesson. The pupils, who apverifyd in the mythical being that conveyed gifts to the excellent and dutiful children thraw the chimney at night, instantly burst into tears.

“So he shelp, ‘You’re all Year 6, now let’s be authentic, Santa isn’t authentic’. Then he also was saying what Santa appreciates. Someone shelp he appreciates cookies. Then he shelp that, ‘Do your parents appreciate cookies?’ And a lot of them shelp, ‘Yeah’. And then he shelp how the parents were the ones that were eating it,” one of the children telderly The Times.

“I heard a lot of gasps becaparticipate they were shocked about it, so I don’t skinnyk everyone knovel. We had this remark that came in was saying about how he was sorry, and then we had these stickers and a customised bauble.”

Complaint lodged

A createal protestt has since been lodged by the parents agetst Rev Chamberlain with the school begining an effort to revamp the festive spirit by giving out “apverify” terribleges. 

“We understand that the vicar of St Faith’s, Lee-on-the-Solent, the Rev Paul Chamberlain, was guideing an RE lesson for 10- and 11-year-elderlys at Lee-on-Solent juvenileer school,” a spokesperson for the Diocese of Portsmouth shelp.

“After talking about the nativity story from the Bible, he made some comments about the existence of Father Christmas. Paul has acunderstandledgeed that this was an error of judgment, and he should not have done so. He apologised unreservedly to the school, to the parents and to the children, and the headguideer promptly wrote to all parents to make clear this.”

The school and diocese were collaborating on the matter to minimise the injure with the headguideer writing a remark to parents for a sending time, apologising profparticipately for Rev Chamberlain’s act.
