PREPARING FOR CHRISTMAS
It’s December. It’s time to start our preparations for Christmas.
CHRISTMAS CAROLS
First, we learn Christmas carols and we repeat them during Religion hours. We are very proud because we went to church and sang Christmas carols for all the people there.
CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS
We started making the Christmas decorations a few weeks before Christmas. With our Art teacher we painted plaster shapes. There were Christmas trees, angels, Santa Clauses, 
presents. We also made pictures from napkins and we painted glass. With all these we climbed the hill to the citadel. The surprise was that it started to snow! We felt like princesses and 
princes in a fairy land! Here we had a workshop for the visitors of the citadel. We were there two days and we showed people how to make Christmas decorations. We also sold our products and we gathered money for out Art Club. On the last day, together with the citadel wardens we decorated a beautiful Christmas tree situated in the citadel yard. Our presence in the citadel was very successful. We appeared in the newspaper and also on some websites. We felt very happy.

CHRISTMAS AT SCHOOL
On the last day of school, we celebrated Christmas 
together. First we cleaned the classroom. Then we decorated the Christmas tree and listened to Christmas music form all over the world. We exchanged presents and took photos. Everybody brought something to eat and drink. Alex brought his famous cookies called “baskets” (“cosulete”). We even drank champagne (for children! ) It was a fabulous day!

CHRISTMAS AT HOME
For Christmas we send Christmas cards, e-mails, messages to our friends. Children write letters to Santa Claus and put them under the Christmas tree or at the window. A few days before Christmas, we prepare our houses for Christmas. We arrange decorations at the windows (Santa Claus, candles, stars). The Christmas tree is decorated with globes, tinsel and on top of it with a star. For Christmas, people’s houses are always a beautiful and bright paradise. But the most important thing for Christmas is to be together with your family and enjoy it together.

CAROLING
On Christmas we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. We all learn Christmas carols to announce the good news. On Christmas Eve we go caroling from house to house. People listen to us and give us nuts, apples, candies and sometimes money. It’s a tradition so we do this every year. On Christmas we go to church and sing carols. Everybody is happy when it’s Christmas!
SANTA CLAUS
On Christmas night we all wait for Santa Claus who comes with presents for all. We leave cakes and milk for him because we love him very much. We are all very excited when we open our presents!
TRADITONAL FOOD by Stefan
For Christmas we all eat and prepare traditional food. For example, my Mum made very good meat roll (rulada de carne), sausages, liverwurst (caltabos) and filled eggs. For lunch my dad prepared delicious roast pork and Mum the best cabbage rolls(sarmale). For desert, my Grandmother Rose cooked good ginger bread (turta dulce) and the best sponge cake (cozonac). My Mum is expert in apple pie and cheese pie. We invited our relatives around a big table and we ate together for Christmas. It was beautiful.
