Hello! We are Looking for Talent!

"Алло, Ми шукаємо таланти!" is the Annual Talent Show at my lyceum. Now that I understand the language a bit better and have connected with more of the students, these concerts have become much more interesting. My students often talk about their hobbies in class so it's great to see them in action. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Ukrainian students love to perform.


Enjoy the photos below!

Not part of the talent show, but last Thursday we had our Annual Cossack competition. Boys from the 9th, 10th, and 11th Forms formed teams to take part in an evening full of different events.
