Every year on 1st of March, Bulgarian people celebrate a centuries-old tradition called the day of Baba Marta (baba means ‘Grandma’ and Marta means ‘March’), related to sending off the winter and welcoming the approaching spring.
The boys and girls in P4/5 enjoyed making “Martenitsas”, using pieces of red and white twisted threads, with the help of Eliza. The bracelets symbolise health and happiness and can be used as a lucky charm.
