How Christmas is
celebrated in Russia
, Is happy/merry Christmas in Russian.
Russians observe Christmas on January 7 which
follows the Julian calendar used by the Russian Orthodox Church. Orthodox
Christian Russians don’t eat on Christmas Eve until the first star is in the
sky that night. At this time they eat a porridge made from wheat or rice with
honey, poppy seeds, berries, and nuts called Kutia.
There are some Catholic Russians that still
celebrate it on December 25th.
Russian new year more important than Christmas
New Year celebrations are still very important
to Russians
it is when 'Father Frost' (Дед Мороз) brings
it is when 'Father Frost' (Дед Мороз) brings
presents to children. He is always
accompanied by his Grandaughter
(Snegurochka). On New Year's eve children
hold
hands, make a circle around the
Christmas tree and call for both of them. They bring light to the Christmas tree.
Things to celebrated new year in Russia
- Russian family will decorate their house in a beautiful and extravagant way including add a glittering Christmas tree.
- During the New Year celebrations, a traditional Russian family will make a sophisticated dinner.
- Just before midnight, the Russian President addresses the nation with a short speech in which he reflects on the past year and thanks the people for their support. Right after the speech, the chiming clock on the Kremlin’s Spasskaya Tower is shown counting down the last few seconds of the year.
- Local Russians bid farewell to the old year by counting the chimes of the Kremlin Spasskaya Clock Tower
- In Russia, no one goes to bed on New Years Eve, even the children stay up until the early hours of the morning. It is essential to watch the fireworks on New Years, which accompanies with lots of celebrations and dancing
- Russians welcome the New Year by saying “S Novim Godom!” (С Новым годом!).
- Grandfather Frost – instead of Santa, Russian children believe in the no less mythical Grandfather Frost who wears a long blue or red fur coat, a matching hat and felt boots and carries gifts in a large sack on his back. In addition to the sack with gifts, Grandfather Frost carries a magical staff that has the power to freeze everything around him. Unlike Santa, Grandfather Frost doesn’t rely on reindeer to fly him around, but instead walks and skies a lot (no potbelly!) or drives his magical team of three horses.
- It is traditional for gifts to be given after midnight on New Years. Unlike gifts being given on Christmas, they are given and received on new years

Main star own chioce How my love for dance started
In 2012 I started dancing with foot steps dance studio I was 6 years old and did one class a week the class was basic ballet steps before some of the classes ended we played a game. It was with this class I got to perform as a group on stage for the first time as a dancer. At the end of 2012 foot steps closed and I started dancing with Debbie-Ann it was a grade class that had to sit exams in term 3 and term 1. We had 5 girls in my dance class. In term 2 after we had been working hard In class we meet Leisa and Ashlley they are from Springfield they gave us a team dance for 10 and under. Our 45 minute class on a Monday was for our exam work. Then we had a Friday class for group dance and weekends when Leisa or Ashlley came over. 4 weeks before exams I rolled my ankle I had to have physio and my ankle had to be strapped for every dance class and exams I still tried my hardest. For exams pre-grade 3 we got gold rosettes. At the end of term 3 was Grey Mouth dance comps we performed as a group we wore black and red and I new all 3 dance teachers were watching me to see how I performed on stage as I wanted a solo.
The next year all my hard work paid off an I got my first solo in October from Leisa and Ashelly it was to girls just want to have fun I worked hard on my solo for a few months but in January 2014 Debbie-Ann retired and Leisa’s dad fell sick so I joined pink pulse dance studio but kept working on my solo ‘’girls just want to have fun’’ at home At pink pulse I did 1 and a half hour’s jazz class and a hour stretch flex class with Emma from (pink pulse). Emma gave me a solo with her called ‘’we got the world ‘’ I performed for the first time as a solo dancer in 2014 in Christchurch at the new Zealand dance awards at the end of 2014 I got two award’s from both Emma at pink pulse an Leisa in Springfield for the hard work I had put in thought out the year over the charismas school holiday’s Dance still went on I did workshop classes with Ashelly winter. I’m still dancing just as much an working hard at my dances I’m also doing ballet next term I will sit ballet exams I love dance because it is fun and it makes me happy my story of dance is not over yet I do not plan on giving up any time soon.
