Mihrajan Azitun (Olives festival in Morocco)

Al Marroc quan es recullen les olives es fa una festa que es diu Tboreda on es munta al cavall i fan una línia, corren i agafen escopetes i quan arriben disparen alhora.

In Morocco for the olives crop there’s a Festival called Tboreda where the people ride horses and run and then altogether shoot their arms

LA TARDOR

Els nens i nenes del Cicle Inicial, hem treballat la tardor.

Hem fet una sortida a recollir fulles i hem fet una exposició amb els fruits de tardor: carbasses, castanyes, pomes, mandarines …

A la classe hem pintat els fruits tot observant el seu color del natural.

Us ensenyem la foto.

La Castanyada (Traditional Catalan Festival)


ready to have the chestnuts and the “panellets”

The 31st of October is the day of the dead people, and we celebrates Castanyada festival. Is a very old holiday and it’s still alive despite the time. At school we celebrate it making ‘panellets’ (almond and sugar Catalan pastry) and we bake and eat chestnuts beacuse is a very ancient tradition.

The students of 6th grade wear a Castanyer/a custom (people who bake and sell chestnuts at street) and bring the chestnuts to the rest of students. And we prepare a Terror House, beacuse these days is usual to tell terrific legends and stories.

"Per Tots Sants castanyes i cargols amb banyes"

This Catalan proverb reminds us that Autumn is one of the most exciting seasons for traditional food. Many fruits (pomegranate, quince, grapes, chestnuts..) are ready to be eaten, others (olives) to be picked and with the Fall rainings arrive also the desired mushrooms and snails. To complete the menu arrive also some traditional pastries (panellets) and confitures (codonyat made with quince).

Our younger students prepared an exposition on Aurtumn fruits, and the elder ones learned how valuable are on the nutritional side.

La Castanyada

castanyes i panellets

El dia 31 d’octubre és el dia dels morts, i celebrem la Castanyada. La Castanyada es una festa molt antiga i encara se celebra malgrat el pas de temps. A l’escola ho celebrem fent panellets i torrem i mengem castanyes perquè es una tradició de fa molts anys i nosaltres els de sisè ens disfressem de castanyers i castanyeres i donem castanyes als nens petits. I fem la casa de por perquè en aquests dies es conten històries de por.
