D e a r S p a n i s h F r i e n d s ! How are you? Thank you for your last letter and photos of La Castanyada- it is really interesting and the cakes look delicious. In this letter we want to tell you about Polish traditions at Christmas. Students have a Christmas break from 23rd December to 1st January. How long is your Christmas break in Spain? In Poland, on 24th December people celebrate Christmas Eve. When the first star appears on the sky, the whole family meets together and they have a special Christmas Eve dinner. Christmas dinner is very special because we eat traditional 12 dishes: fish, cabbage soup, dumplings with mushrooms or cabbage, mushroom soup, potatoes, salads, poppy cake and other. After dinner people share a wafer, exchange wishes and open presents which are under the Christmas tree. They also pray and sing Christmas songs and go to the church to Midnight Mass and celebrate birth of Jesus. On 25th December, that is Christmas Day, people relax, visit families and friends and spend wonderful time at Christmas tree. How do you celebrate Christmas in Spain? Do you decorate Christmas trees in your school? In our school we have a Christmas tree and other decorations in every classroom, students decorate them, with shiny ornaments. Students also prepare a school Christmas play with Holy Mary, Joseph, little Jesus, shepherds and the Three Wise Men. We all like Christmas time- it’s so magic and beautiful. Please write about Christmas traditions in Spain. Greetings from Poland, Students from 5th and 6th grades .

Bulletin avayii&tft©: "Aunt Sammy's Eadio Recipes." **# This morning, while I was thinking about roast turkey dinners, and what a lot of work it is to prepare holiday meal s, I was reminded of the big feasts which were served in the days of old, when knights and lords and ladies lived in merrie England, Do you know that they used to celebrate Christmas for two weeks, or more? The biggest feaSt of all came on Christmas day, when the feudal chieftain enter- tained all his friends. The boar's head was the main dish on the menu. All £ the "best people" served a boar's head at Christmas time. It was always carried to the banqueting hall on a gold or silver platter, by a special servant, amid the flourish of trumpets, and strains of minstrelsy. Next in importance to the boar's head was a peacock. The skin and feathers were first carefully removed, and the peacock was roasted. When it was done, the bird was sewed up again in all its gorgeous plumage, its beak was gilded, and itvasi/sent to the table. Only noble hands could serve this splendid dish. It was brought into the dining hall by the most distinguished and beautiful. • lady guest. She was followed by the rest of the ladies, and they entered the hall to the sounds of music. The dish was placed before the master of the house, or his most honored guest, who, no doubt, was'/ skillful with the carving knife, as he was with, the lance,' in joust or tournament.

Christmas Around the World What Is Christmas? Christmas Is a Religious Holiday Which Celebrates the Birth of the Son of God, Jesus Christ, on the 25Th December
Christmas around the World What is Christmas? Christmas is a religious holiday which celebrates the birth of the son of God, Jesus Christ, on the 25th December. Although it is a Christian holiday, it is actually one that derives from a lot of Pagan traditions. The Christmas tree is a 17th century German invention that is said to have been developed from the Pagan practice of bringing greenery indoors for decoration in winter. Father Christmas is also thought to be a modern incarnation of old Pagan spirits flying through the sky in winter. Celebrations Christmas is celebrated by millions of people all over the world, Christian and non-Christian. It is a time of gathering with family and friends. There are some mostly universal traditions, such as decorating houses with lights, trees, candles and having a Christmas dinner. There are also some very unique traditions, specific to certain countries. For example, the people of India like to decorate their houses and streets with colourful, folded paper stars. The Polish serve a total of 12 dishes, one for each disciple, at their Christmas dinner and the Spanish leave out hay-filled boots or shoes at night so that, by the next morning, the hay would be replaced with chocolate, presents or money. In Ireland, the people like to light candles in the windows of their homes to act as a guide for Joseph and Mary to travel to their resting place. The candles are often red and decorated with sprigs of holly. Over in the West Indies, the people like to clean their homes thoroughly before decorating for Christmas.
