Skills Street Elf Training Academy
Santa is recruiting and your elf training starts here!
Join Skills Street for a festive adventure where children discover their elf identity, fly to Lapland and learn the skills needed to join Santa’s team.
With hands-on challenges, a workshop led by Santa and something special to take home, this is Christmas magic with a Skills Street twist!
📅 Event Dates: Saturday 12 December and Saturday 19 December 2026
🕙 Session Times: 10am, 11am, 12 noon, 2pm and 3pm
⏱️ Experience Duration: Approximately 45 minutes–1 hour
🎟️ Tickets: £15 per person
✨ Begin Your Elf Training
Meet one of Santa’s senior elves, discover your special elf name and write your letter to Santa. Then work together to activate the North Pole Power Tube; can you generate enough festive energy to open the flight path to Lapland?
✈️ Fly to Lapland
Check in for your journey, pass through North Pole Security and meet your pilot before boarding a simulated flight to Lapland. Listen to your cabin crew and get ready for your next training challenge!
🛠️ Join Santa’s Workshop
Santa needs more than Christmas magic to get the presents ready! Join him in the workshop to practise:
Teamwork: use our mini cranes to move small Christmas presents together.
Present wrapping: practise wrapping a training box neatly, ready for the sleigh.
Creative skills: choose a festive craft to make and take home.
Reindeer preparation: make a pouch of reindeer food for Christmas Eve.
A delicious hot chocolate is included to enjoy during your workshop visit.
📸 Meet Santa
Our navigation elf will invite each family to join Santa for a special photo opportunity using your own phone or camera.
Each child receives a Christmas gift and a Skills Elf Graduation Certificate, celebrating their new skills! Afterwards, return to finish your workshop activities or head home if your training is complete.
