On May 25, the last bell rang for 50 thousand graduates of the capital. Preparations for the holiday were carried out long before the onset of the solemn day: each school developed its own script. Skits were prepared for parents and teachers, and after the lineup and the concert, according to tradition, the graduates went for a walk around the city.
Instructions
Step 1
Elegant and happy graduates began to come to the doors of their native schools a few hours before the start of the solemn lines. Students took pictures with teachers and parents, tried on red ribbons. The assembly halls accommodated the high school students themselves, as well as parents and teachers, junior high school students who came to congratulate their older comrades.
Step 2
The very last bell ceremony itself is always very touching, and almost all graduates admitted that they were overwhelmed with mixed feelings. This day, of course, becomes the beginning of a new life, which, of course, brings joy, but it is also in many respects sad, since you have to say goodbye to the school, which for 11 years has been the second home for its pupils.
Step 3
“The point is not where everyone will go, what they will do in life, but in the unique feeling that something is about to change. And this is the most important and interesting thing,”say graduates of one of the schools.
Step 4
Many parting words were heard from teachers and parents. First of all, they are proud of their students and children. This day turned out to be extremely emotional: both smiles and tears shone on the young faces. At the end of the solemn lines, former schoolchildren went to traditional festivities in parks and embankments.
Step 5
Holiday concerts were organized for Moscow graduates. Many streets were closed so that young people could safely walk around the capital, and some even preferred to go on pleasure boats on a small cruise along the Moscow River. In total, more than a hundred ships were leased.
Step 6
For safety reasons, the sale of alcohol was limited this year to avoid unforeseen situations. In addition, more than three thousand police officers were on duty in Moscow on Friday.
Step 7
The festive holiday ended with fireworks. Graduates are given three days to relax and celebrate an important event, as well as prepare for the upcoming final exams, the first of which is scheduled for May 28.
