Description

Groetjes iedereen,

ENG: What do you know about different traditions in countries around the world during winter and Christmas time? Do you want to learn about some? 
Worry not, we got you covered! Sinterklaas is coming to town! 
Join us in learning a bit about The Netherlands and Belgium - about their traditions and about the countries in general. You will get to show off your knowledge and, ofcourse, win some awesome prizes along the way! 
You will get to share something about your own traditions as well!
So, if you are ready to learn about new cultures and traditions and share a bit about your own, this event is definitely for you! 

NL/BE: De volgende maandag vieren we de klassieke feestdag die eeuwenlang traditioneel gevierd wordt net zo goed in Nederland als in Vlaanderen. De bedoeling is dat ook andere tradities en culturen gewaardeerd worden behalve alleen de Kroatische cultuur tijdens het semester in Kroatië. In samenwerking met studenten Nederlandse taal en letterkunde uit Zagreb hebben wij een fantastische Sinterklaas-feestje georganiseerd. Maak geen zorgen, de Sint komt! Hij brengt ook cadeautjes... 

Als je ook graag andere verhalen uit andere culturen wil horen, ben je ook van harte uitgenodigd. Meerdere versies Sinterklaas bestaan wereldwijd. Het is tijd voor culturele uitwisseling!
