History of the Day of Knowledge

Prior to the reign of Peter the Great, who completely destroyed all the old traditions and introduced new ones, it was customary to celebrate the New Year on September 1, as well as the harvest festival. After some events, the New Year celebration was postponed to January 1. "Day of knowledge" the holiday began to be called only in 1984, at that time the Supreme Soviet of the USSR gave it the status of state. Despite this, the day of September 1 was educational, free students and schoolchildren were not given this day. Now all traditions are not based on the state, and not mediocrely from the educational institution, so the director has the right to decide independently whether to hold a solemn line and to release students from the lessons.

First of all, the holiday was officially approved by the authorities in order to emphasize the importance and importance of education in the life of a citizen. To date, obtaining a certificate of complete general education is a prerequisite, without which no one will be taken to either a higher educational institution or a job. To finish the university or institute every young citizen has the right to decide on his own, but if your plans include career growth and obtaining a prestigious position, you need a university degree diploma. You can also apply to a secondary special institution after 9 or 11 classes.

Day of knowledge in 1 class is not much different from the holiday for older students. If you want your child to remember this day forever, prepare together with other parents and teachers an entertainment program involving fairy-tale characters, any children's characters. And in addition to the presentation, you can draw the guys into a fun game with contests and gifts. This will not only amuse the first-graders, but will also bring them together in a new collective. Help in the preparation of the event can and high school students. Also, do not forget to prepare congratulations on the Day of Knowledge for teachers and school administration. This holiday is of no less importance for them than for your children, so let the teachers be pleased together with you!
