In The Claus Family, Norah is Jules’ younger sister who wishes to become Santa Claus after discovering her brother’s secret. Amber Metdepenningen plays Norah Claus.
After the death of Jules and Norah’s father, Jules found out that Noël, his grandfather, is Santa Claus and that the role has been passed down in their family for generations. Jules then started working as Santa with his grandfather.
In The Claus Family 3, when Jules’ ten-year-old sister, Norah, overhears Noël and Jules’ conversation and discovers this secret, Noël decides to let her work with them, much to Jules’ disappointment.
Norah’s mistakes
Norah sneaks into her grandfather’s hotel room when they go on a holiday and finds the snow globe, which takes her to the North Pole. Norah puts the pieces together and realizes that her grandfather and brother are Santa Claus.
Jules has no desire to let Norah be Santa with them, as he does not want to share the special role with anyone. However, Noël allows Norah to join them when they go to deliver presents to children everywhere.
Norah is asked not to touch anything at people’s houses and not to reveal their family secret to anyone, which is the most important rule. However, when they go to a house in Mexico to deliver presents, Norah ends up ringing a bell while taking a cookie left for Santa.
Norah’s mistake wakes the owners of the house, who call the police on Noël. While Noël is arrested, Jules and Norah manage to get away. The incident convinces Jules that Norah cannot be Santa, and he continues excluding her in their grandfather’s absence.
Norah wants to help people, but her brother refuses to take her help. She then decides to help a boy named Felix, who wants to go home instead of practicing skiing, even though Felix bullies her.
Norah shows Felix the snow globe that her grandfather and brother use to travel to different places and breaks the most important rule. With the help of the globe, she takes Felix to his family, but her attempts to help do more harm than good.
The best Santa ever
Felix steals the snow globe, and due to that, Jules is unable to rescue Noël. Jules scolds Norah once again, and a guilty Norah decides to make things right all by herself, as she is the one who is responsible for this mess.
Norah tricks Felix and gets the snow globe back. She then travels to the prison where her grandfather is supposed to be and finds herself in danger. Jules comes to her rescue and realizes that he should have included his sister in his plans.
Jules then works with Norah, and they are able to save their grandfather. On top of that, Norah helps Felix, even though they lose the snow globe because of him. She makes Felix understand that he is more important than his achievements.
Norah’s kindness and willingness to help others make Norah the best Santa in Noël’s eyes. She befriends Felix, and as Jules is no longer opposed to sharing his role with her, Norah starts working as Santa Claus with her brother and grandfather.
