Celebrations

17th of May

The 17th of May is the Norwegian National day and every year we celebrate this in the Kindergarten, together with the Norwegian School in London. This is a big part of the Norwegian heritage and culture. We have a gathering in the morning where we raise the Norwegian Flag on the flagpole, have speeches and a light serving. For the children that have parents present for the day we encourage everyone to join in on the festivities that the 17th of may committee in London arranges in Southwark Park. Here we will walk in a parade with the school, a band and everyone else that wants to join in. There are games arranged, servings of traditional Norwegian 17th of May food and snacks to purchase.
