A BIT OF HISTORY:
Sant Jordi (Saint George) is celebrated on April 23 throughout Catalonia. The cult of Sant Jordi was strong in Catalonia in the medieval period with the result that he became Catalonia’s patron Saint. In legend, Sant Jordi was a brave knight who fought versus a terrifying dragon and rescued a princess. And from the dragon blood, came out a rose. Then, Sant Jordi gave it to the princess.
In 1st Primary class we presented this day with children acting out the legend of Sant Jordi and the dragon.
I hope you enjoy the pictures… 🙂
