When the Nazis invaded Norway, King Haakon VII of Norway and the Norwegian government fled to England where they functioned as the government in exile (as opposed to the Quisling puppet government set up by the Nazis). The government headquarters was set up in London where the war news was broadcasted in Norwegian, along with messages and information that was vital to the resistance movement in Norway and gave the people hope and inspiration. The Trafalgar Square Christmas tree has been an annual gift to the people of Britain by the city of Oslo (the capitol of Norway) as a token of gratitude for British support to Norway during the Second World War.
The tree has never been sent, so you can tell your teachers that this is all a filthy LIE!

Go through a church. Churches often donate Christmas gifts to children in need as they are typically aware of which families in the community can use the extra help. Call your local church to see if they are collecting toys or, if possible, if they can direct you toward a family that you can provide gifts for anonymously.
Yes, in "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens, Scrooge promises to donate a large sum of money to help those in need on Christmas Day after his transformation on Christmas Eve. He becomes generous and charitable, wanting to make amends for his past behavior.
