DAY PANCAKEE DA AY Pancake Day (Shrove Tuesday) is a special day celebrated in many countries all over the world but it’s mostly celebrated in the UK, Ireland, Australia and Canada. On this day, people eat pancakes (thin, flat cakes and others). Pancake Day is always celebrated on Tuesday in February or March. It’s the day before Ash Wednesday, the start of Lent (period of 40 days before Easter). This year we’ve celebrated Pancake Day on 25th February. Teachers in our school decided to treat our „little” 2nd graders with pancakes. They went to the school canteen and ate all delicious pancakes that were made by our amazing cooks. They’ve also shared their opinions with us. Irena said that pancakes were very delicious and Jakov wrote The Pancake song:
„Beat two eggs, Pour some milk, Add some flour And mix, mix, mix. Toss it high from the pan, Catch pancakes if you can. Put some chocolate, jam or honey, Eat them hot, yummy, yummy, yummy. “
Teachers and pupils enjoyed the Pancake Day so they thanked our cooks on perfectly prepared sweets. I think we should have pancakes more often in our school canteen but we need to be thankful for things we get. It’s always fun in the school kitchen
