He's making a list, he's checking it twice. He's gonna find out who's naughty or nice. Santa Claus is coming to town -- in Brazil!
Students of the "Escola de Papai Noel do Brasil" (Brazil's school of Santa Claus) attend lessons in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil to prep for all things jolly.
The school, which was founded in 1993, prepares its students to play Santa Claus during the Christmas season. Lessons include singing, physical activity, how to dress and how to care for their beards.
The school holds four days of lessons in Santa training. From Christmas carols to how to interact with children, these student Santas are prepared for anything. The training even includes a special lesson on how to wear the heavy red suit in Rio's typical 104-degree weather, which is common around the holidays.
