AND BEGIN TO END 2010

The year 2010 began with extreme cold in Varna and the recommendations of the City Council the school was forced to remain closed for several days. This has not prevented the children to celebrate exceptional amounts of snow.

early January and in accordance with French tradition, all classes have celebrated the "kings". This festival of pagan origin was known at the time Romans. Whoever found the bean hidden in the cake was king or queen for a day and could do what he or she wanted that day. Lord or King of the country then had to do without his servant ...

In Christian tradition, Epiphany, or Kings Day, commemorates the visit of three kings, Melchior, Caspar and Balthazar came to be presents to the Child Jesus of myrrh, frankincense and gold. To find their way to the manger, the Magi followed a star brighter than all others. The star that guided them is called the evening star. In 1801, it was decided that the date of the Epiphany (which means 'appearance') would be January 6.

Today, the tradition is for the 'Day of the Kings', we share a cake called galette. In southern and western France, we share a cake shaped like a crown. In this cake or this ring is hidden a bean, usually porcelain. Custom dictates that the youngest of the family crawls under the table to help with distribution and decide who gets which part. Thus, nobody can cheat. Whoever eats the part containing the bean is declared king (or queen). We put a crown on the head of the king who must choose his queen (or otherwise).
