Christmas



The students and the teachers from school ” Hristo Botev ”- Nikopol have organised a
Christmas charity market where a lot of home-made breads, sweets, cookies, Christmas souvenirs and cards were sold. The girls and boys from the vocal group were singing all the time and the Christmas boys (The Koledars) represented the old Bulgarian custom – Koleduvane. The koledari carolers traditionally start their rounds at midnight on Christmas Eve. They visit the houses of their relatives, neighbours and other people in the village. The caroling is usually performed by young men, which are accompanied by an elder one called stanenik. Each caroler carries a stick called gega. They wish the people from the village health, wealth and happiness. The performance was excellent and contributed to the Christmas mood of the guests.


Merry Christmas and a really Happy New Year to all our Polish, Maltese, Italian and French friends!
