Christmas decoration at the Local Residential Home for Old Persons

After we decorated our school we decided that the old people at the Local Resident Home need to feel the atmosphere of Christmas too. This is why we took the decoration left at school and bought some more. One afternoon we decided to go and create Christmas mood. The people there were so happy because of our visit and some of them even joined us. We spread the tasks in our group and my classmate Dayan and I had to make a curtain from Christmas lights. To be the tallest is not always a privilege because you might be given the hardest task - it required a lot of patience which I don’t have. However, after a plenty of time lost in arguments and meaningless attempts we managed to finish it. At the same time Gerry and Velislav were putting some Christmas stars and garlands around the room. There was one more task for tall people- to hang some Christmas stars at the hall but this time I did it on my own as I hopped it would be less annoying. At the end, the Christmas spirit could be felt at the Resident Home just before their Christmas celebration. In my opinion, the old people there really enjoyed what we did for them and spent one different and interesting day together with us as well as a Christmas day full of joy.

Christmas charity bazar


During the classes of the “Applied arts” club we made very beautiful pegs decorated with Christmas motives which have to be sold. The money from the pegd will go to our charity campaign,
The mayor of our town organized a Christmas bazaar in one of the local parks. One of the pavilions at the bazaar was given to different charity organizations for limited period of time. This pavilion was given to our school together with the Local resident home for older persons “Venta Boteva” for two days. During this period we had to sell our pieces of art and collect money for charity.
Despite the cold weather it was very interesting and we had a lot of fun. I think it was also very useful for us because we developed our skills for working with people and also our trade skills
