Visit Santa’s Village at St. Monica’s, sip on Xmas Tea at Tal-y-Tara this Sunday

There are a couple of fun holiday-themed events going on this Sunday in the neighborhood.

From 11:30am until 3:30pm, St. Monica’s School is hosting Santa’s Village, a community event where you can have brunch with Santa, get your photo photo with Santa, let your kids become an elf in Santa’s Workshop, and do a little Christmas shopping list in their Christmas Boutique.

Entry is $13 per person. St. Monica’s School is located at 5950 Geary Blvd near 23rd Avenue.

Also on Sunday is the first of two Tal-y-Tara Christmas Teas, held at their shop on California Street near 27th Avenue. Tal-y-Tara is an English tearoom with high-tea service, as well as a polo and equestrian shop.

They serve a full tea service with sandwiches and scones, featuring live musical performances and sing-a-long, lots of games, and even Santa Claus will be on hand to read stories to the children (you’ll have to ask Santa how he’s managing to be at St. Monica’s AND Tal-y-Tara at the same time!).

Christmas Tea at Tal-y-Tara is offered this Sunday, Dec. 11 from 12noon until 6pm, as well as next Sunday, Dec. 18. The price is $25 per person – make reservations by calling 751-9275.
