guide for surviving in Europe

• Behavoir Rules

2

• In a general way, all of us live at home with our
  parents, brothers and sisters.

3

• Eventually we can also live with our maternal or
  paternal grand-parents.

4
During the school year

• Our classes start at nine oclock a.m., so we
  must get up early, (between seven oclock and
  half past eight a.m.)

5

• Most of us come to school on foot, but some
  pupils must come by car or by bus, because their
  houses are far from school.

6

• We have the same situation even at lunch time
  when most parents are waiting for some of us in
  orther to take us at home by car.
• Our schedules are similar of the adults.

7

• In the morning, classes finish at half past
  twelve. Sometimes we have lunch in the secondary
  school with our brothers or sisters or at home.
  During the week we rarely have a meal with our
  family, at least at lunch time.

8

• In the afternoon, the classes finish at half past
  four p.m.. Some of us go home eat something and
  do the homeworks. Others go to a tutor/coach for
  examination.

9

• In the evening we usually have our family
  together for dinner. (Dinner time is between
  half past seven from half past eigth p.m.)
• At dinner time we talk about what happened during
  our school day.

10

• After dinner we spend our time doing what we want
  to.
• We go to bed between ten and ten thirty p.m.

11
Week-ends

• At the week-ends, we can get up late and do the
  things we like doing. But we must not forget the
  homeworks. In these days we have meals together
  with our family.

12

• Sometimes we eat outside, we visit our
  grandparents or even we take a walk with our
  parents or friends. During the week-end we can
  go to bed later because we dont have to get up
  early.

13

Birthdays The way we celebrate birthdays

• We usually do our birthday party at home.
• Our mothers do cakes and sweets and we invite our
  friends to the party.

14

• If we have a farm, we celebrate our birthday
  there.
• Some of us have farm animals, so we do a kind of
  Portuguese bullfight with the calf.

15

• . At night (dont forget we are in countryside),
  we do a fire and we go on playing until we are
  tired.
• . In all the birthday parties we sing Happy
  Birthday and we offer a birthday present.

16
Christmas

• Our Christmas traditions are more or less the
  same.
• Families prepare many kinds of sweets and cakes,
  for instance, the tortilhas fritters, which are
  typical of our region.

17

• We use to ornament the Christmas tree and the
  houses with Christmas decoration and cribs.
• Families join themselves in order to spend
  Christmas Eve together.

18

• The childrens wait for the Saint Claus visit. At
  midnight people open their presents and many of
  them go to the Cocks Mess celebrated in
  Principal Church, (Igreja Matriz).

19
Easter

• In Campo Maior there are religious processions on
  Holy Friday.

20

• We also go camping to the countryside, near
  Enxaras Santuary. Sometimes people go there two
  months earlier in order to choose a place for
  their tents.

21

• During five days people change their houses to
  the Enxaras Santuary, as neighbours, visiting
  each others tents in order to talk, eat and
  drink.
• In these days we use to eat lamb and the
  alhada, a meal made with river fish.

22

• In the sweats and cakes, we have the queijada,
  a cake made from eggs, milk, cheese, sugar and
  flour, and the folar, a kneading cake with a
  boiled egg in the middle.

23

• In Enxara there are merry-go-rounds, bars and
  plenty of music. On Sunday there are a bullfight
  and a procession, and on Monday the celebration
  finishes.
