On 12 November, the 4th floor celebrated St. Martin’s Day. Mardipäev is a holiday in the Estonian national calendar. The children and teachers were able to experience the authentic, fun and lively atmosphere of Mardtmas. Folk dancing, singing, puzzles, sweets, smiles and humour are the keywords of today’s event. Thank you to the lovely Beardies (2.b and 2.a) for cheering us up and introducing us to the traditions of the festive day, and a big thank you to the “hosts” (1.a, 1.c, 2.a) for their warm welcome and very active participation!

Mart throws in a seedcorn,
in front of the stove an eggcorn,
in the back corner a dovecorn,
in the four corners a maidencorn,
on the floor a boycorn.

Children are looking forward to Kadri Day and the Kadri Run!
