Countdown - 3 more days...
There is a 
tradion at Kölcsey and in most Hungarian high schools . We call it 'GÓLYBÁL', which would be 'stark ball' in English. In fact, nothing to do with birds. Gólyabál is a happy event held in autumn and organised for the new students of the school. We have about 150 new schoolmates, in Year 7 and Year 9, altogether in five classes.
Tomorrow they will have to carry out the tasks that are designed for them - by older students... Just an example: they will have to wear gowns and slippers during the breaks. Then in the afternoon they will perform a little presentation, do a quiz, and - hope to - win a nice cake as winners. Kata from our Water and Fire team is making it with, probably in this very moment. Dani will be the conductor of the afternoon program. From 6 to10pm there is a ball with sandwiches and refreshments. Iza, Mimi, Virág, Zsófi and Andris will be busy like everyone in 13.B, raising money for class before their graduation in May '06.
I plan to put some photos on this great blog. Too bad you cannot join us tomorrow, but good news you can, a few days later.
Happy packing! Make sure you have a pair of shoes for the outings and a pair f
or town walk or school (Hungarians also like to wear slippers when at home). You'll be walking on lakeshores, in medieval ruins and in a Baroque castle. Among others, you will take a tour to a small village and to the building of the Hungarian Parliament. And don't forget about your swimsuit! Oh, and your camera may also come in handy, and the cord for downloading on a laptop, if your camera does not have a large memory. In our class trip to Scotland in spring, people downloaded their pictures onto the school's laptop we carried with us so there was room for taking new ones on the following day.
