ESTONIA - The Independence Day of Estonia

The Independence Day of Estonia is on 24 th of February. Estonia will be 93 years old this year. Usually there is a military parade in our capital city Tallinn. Our president Toomas- Hendrik Ilves makes a speech too. Estonian people celebrate the Independence Day usually at home. They watch TV, eat a cake and everybody is happy.
In Surju Basic School we have an Independence Day concert and the headmaster makes a speech. After the concert we have a lot of cake.

ESTONIA - anniversary of Surju Basic School

This year we celebrate our school's birthay on the 28th of January. Our school will be 241 years old, but the school house is much younger.
Usually we have a meeting at school with some speeches, songs and poems. Some times there are guests. The most important thing is that everybody gets a big slice birthay cake.

ESTONIA- New Year

We celebrate New Year Eve on the last day of the year.
We usually have dinner with family. At midnight everybody comes out and there is a lot of firework. I like it because I can see beautiful fireworks and stay up late.
