EASTER HOLIDAYS

Tomorrow is the last school day of this second term; we start our Easter holidays and we won't be back until Tuesday 14th April.

One of the most popular Easter traditions in Catalonia is that on Easter Sunday; the Godfather gives his Godchild "La Mona", an Easter Egg or cake.



Easter usually falls at the end of March, beginning of April, but since Christmas the bakers and confectioners have been planning how they can outdo their last year efforts. Chocolate sculptures representing Disney characters, football idols, etc. adorn the shop windows as each shopkeeper tries to make his display the biggest and the best in order to attract the children's attention as they go past.
Most of the cakes and sculptures are decorated with coloured feathers, chocolate eggs, fluffy chicks, etc. and each year about 500,000 "monas"are eaten in Catalonia.


Have a good time and take care!!
