Christmas Ball

On 22nd December, we had a Christmas ball. This ball was meant for students from form 9 to form 12. It was a lovely event and all students were dressed festively – the boys were wearing suits and the girls were wearing beautiful dresses. In the beginning, every class had to do something to get their little candy packets, which the school had provided for every student. Every form had different tasks to perform. The ninth formers had to read poems, the tenth form had to sing songs, the eleventh had to dance and the twelfth form had to perform a little play. The performances were very diverse and it was very enjoyable. After the performances every class went to their home class and the form master gave them their Christmas packets. When it was done, we went back to the school hall. Our school headmaster had hired a band, which played all night long. This band sang very typical Estonians songs. It was very lovely to watch boys asking girls for a dance. When the band wanted to take a break, some girls performed us their well- prepared dances. I think the ball was most enjoyed by the twelfth form, because this was their last ball in our school. In conclusion, I would like to say that this event was very good for all of us and we are really looking forward to next year’s Christmas ball.

A Christmas Day

On 9th December, our school had a Christmas Day. Firstly, many students came to school dressed up as dwarfs. Most younger students were wearing red clothes and dwarf hats. Some even played little Santas. It was also popular with older students to dress up as dwarfs.

Secondly, we had a Christmas fair. Everyone, who had something to sell, could sell these things to other students or even teachers. There were mostly goods, which students had baked specially for the fair, but there were also some small things. About 25 students had something to sell. When we had breaks from lessons, we could visit the fair, so it wasn’t during the lessons. It was very difficult to move between the stalls at the fair, beacause there were too many students, who wanted to buy or sell something. So, when we walked through the school, we could see different students dressed like dwarfs and visiting the fair. I think that day was full of joy and happiness.

One of the remarkable things, which is worth mentioning, was a donation box. It was for Narva Youth Centre. Everyone, who put some money in it, helped a little bit those children, who do not have so good living conditions in Narva. I think, it was very sweet and I heard that our school donated a lot to this centre.
