There are four school holidays in a year: in autumn, in winter, in spring and in summer. Now I"ll speak about my winter holidays. Winter holidays are shorter than summer. This year they began on the 31st of December and lasted about two weeks. It was so nice to have a rest from school.
During these winter holidays my family and I celebrated New Year and Christmas.
It wasn't very cold during the holidays.
The boys of my class played hockey on the ice. But the girls went to the skating-ring to skate. In the street small children played snowballs and made snowmen, or ride the sledges. It was very fun!
When the weather was bad I stayed at home and played computer games or watched TV. Holidays passed quickly but I had a good rest.
