Traditional Celebrations
In order to perpetuate and learn about traditions from different cultures, various traditions are celebrated during the course of the school year. These special events, organised by the School and the Europa School-PTA and we will keep you updated for this year. In the past they have included:
Halloween
Christmas
Carnival / Mardi Gras
St Martin’s Fest
Sinterklaas
La Befana / Epiphanie / Los Reyes Magos
Birthdays
Children can celebrate their birthdays in school by bringing in (nut free) cakes or other snacks for their class and friends. The cakes need to be cut in pieces and please also provide napkins or paper plates.
Alternatively, if you prefer to avoid sweet treats, on their birthday children could donate a book to the class library. Over time, this would really expand the book collection in each class with titles and authors that the children really enjoy.
Please do not allow your children to come in with sweets to share around.
