The Epiphany

The Epiphany


The six January we celebrated the Epiphany. This day ends the Christmas period. According to the Catholic religion Epiphany recalls the arrival of the Three Wise Men to the Child Jesus. This is a special holiday for children. Indeed we imagine the Befana as an ancient Santa Claus-like figure whose name means "giver of gifts" and appears as a friendly old witch who rides through the air on a broomstick, dropping through chimneys to fill up with stockings toys and candy. All we use to write a letter to Befana to ask for gifts. However Befana is a bit like our court. In fact, she brings sweets and toys to children during the year were good and ash and coal to bads. So we in the morning of Epiphany we never know what we will find in your sock and the night before we are all a little worried.

Christmas time

At Christmas the school was closed from December 22 to January 7. when we come back we talked a lot about how each of us has spent Christmas. Our discussions revealed that most of us took advantage of this period of holiday to be more with his family. Much was expected on Christmas Eve when the whole family (parents, siblings, grandparents, uncles and other relatives) we gathered around the table for the traditional Christmas Eve dinner. It was great to see the whole family gathering and united! On the morning of Christmas have all received a beautiful gift. Many of us had written the letter to Santa and were settled in their desire. Most of the time we spent playing bingo. Many of us have won a few money. We have all led to school photos to show our friends a few moments of our Christmas holidays. Pupils of class II A-B

Christmas Time by Sienna aged 7

I had a wonderful Christmas with my family. I am going to tell you a little bit about it.
On Christmas Eve I went to bed early .In the morning I crept down stairs and I could not believe my eyes .In front of my eyes were lots and lots of presents. The first present I opened was a Nintendo wii. Then I opened a keyboard.

After we had opened our presents I got dressed and went to church with my family to celebrate Jesus’ birthday. After church we went to my auntie’s house and we had Christmas dinner.
I had a good time at Christmas.


Christmas is the best thing ever!!
