ANNUA L SCHOOL ACT I V I T I ES
CLOSING CEREMONY GRADE 3, 4 AND 5
Christmas is celebrated worldwide in a variety of ways:
In Brazil a turkey dinner is made on Christmas Eve and Saint Nicholas brings presents for children
on December 6th. Christmas is a three-day event in Finland, starting with rice porridge and plum
fruit juice Christmas Eve morning. Many families also visit cemeteries and put candles on the gra-
ves of family members. In Portugal, Father Christmas leaves gifts under the tree or in shoes by the
fireplace. The special dinner is usually salted cod fish with boiled potatoes and is eaten at midnight
on Christmas Eve.
In Peru we celebrate at midnight, where everybody have a delicious and special dinner and they
swap gifts. This year at St. George’s College we organized some plays to be presented by the kids.
Grade 3 performed songs from the musical “Grease”, grade 4 and 5 performed the songs from the
musical “The Sound of Music”. Our violinists from grades 3; 4 and 5 presented some beautiful mu-
sical pieces. Together, with the direction of teachers Bárbara Leyva and Vicente, the choir sang two
songs. Every afternoon the students would rehearse their songs and musical. The presentation was
excellent as the students were very well behaved, they presented themselves well and we were very
impressed that they didn’t even appear to be nervous!
