Holy Supper

Hi, Ukrainian boys and girls.

My name is Betty. I’m from London. I have never been in your country but I read much about Ukraine. It is December and people in our country prepare for Christmas. We celebrate this holiday on the 25th of December. The Christmas season is the most festive time of the year in England. It is a family holiday. Pupils at school have a two week vacation. In the evening on the 24th of December children hang their Christmas stockings on their beds or put them under the Christmas tree. Santa Claus puts presents into them. Relatives usually meet for big dinner of turkey and Christmas pudding and they give and receive presents.Before Christmas, groups of singers go from house to house. They collect money and sing Christmas songs. Welcome to our country on Christmas celebration. Best wishes. Betty
