Prepared by gen. Antoniego Hedy ps. Szary Primary School in

TURKEY

Students of our school learnt about important

holidays celebrated in Turkey.

Each student searched for information

connected with Turkey and the holiday called

Ramadan.

RAMADAN

Ramadan(tur. Ramazan) – it is a month of fast for the Muslims.

During the fast, adults don’t eat, drink or smoke from the sunrise to the sunset. After Ramadan they celebrate a holiday called Seker Bajram.

Istanbul's Blue Mosque, illuminated during

Ramazan...and Ramazan Bayramı

SEKER BAJRAM

In exact translation - The sugar holiday

It lasts for first three days of the tenth month of the year.

During these days, people give sweets to children. Kids go to the nearest houses and greet adults. In return they receive candies

THE SUGAR HOLIDAY IN OUR SCHOOL

In this particular day students and

teachers could eat as much sweets as

it is possible.There were a lot of

candies, the most popular were

doughnuts.

THE SUGAR HOLIDAY IN OUR SCHOOL

The students and the

teachers prepared

sweet dishes. After that

we ate them together.

THE SUGAR HOLIDAY IN OUR SCHOOL

Everybody liked this day

and we are jealous that

our friends from Turkey

can celebrate this holiday

in such way every year.

BAKLAVA

During the Seker Bayram holiday people visit their families, especially the old ones.It is a time when Turkish should see or at least phone their relatives. They also ought to give them sweet Baklava(remember it has got a lot of calories).

WISHES FOR THE OLDER PEOPLE

Our students had to

visit their

grandparents and

wish them all the

best.

It was a great time spent with our

families.

We compared this custom with our Polish

Christmas or Easter. We also spend this time

with our families.
