Crescenta-Cañada Cooperative Nursery School – CCNS – held its annual Christmas program on Wednesday, Dec. 22 at the Lutheran Church in the Foothills. Both the Busy Bears (4 year olds) and Darling Ducks (3 year olds) participated. The children learned about the true meaning of Christmas listening to the story of Jesus told by Pastor Bruce Johnson. The story was followed by the children singing several holiday songs and culminated with a surprise visit from Santa.

Santa passed out books to each child as parents, siblings, grandparents and other relatives delighted in seeing the children’s faces light up.
