Сценарий выступления: 

Script “Scottish Christmas and New Year”

Presenter 1:

-         Yes, wonders do exist! There are really many wonderful countries with unique history, scenery and traditions!

-         Presenter 2:

-          And today you will get to know one of them. It is Scotland! When we say “Scotland”, everyone thinks of its beautiful Highlands, lakes or “lochs” as they call them.

-         Presenter 1:

-         Yes, and we associate Scotland with their famous “kilts” and tartan cloth.

-         Presenter 2:

-         And what is the “kilt”?

-         Presenter 1: The  kilt is a knee-length garment with pleats at the rear. It originated in the traditional dress of men and boys in the Scottish Highlands of the 16^th century. It is most often made of woolen cloth in a tartan pattern. By the way, it has become an item of fashionable informal male clothing in recent years.

-         Presenter 2: 

-         So, we can meet a man in a kilt in any Scottish town daily. Well, I’m sure wearing a kilt is not the only unique tradition of Scotland.

-         Presenter 1:  No, it is not.

-         Everybody knows that the best way to learn about a country’s culture and its people’s way of life you should live in a host family for a while to get to know the country’s soul from the inside. And we suggest you meet a Scottish family today.

-         David: Hello, everybody! We are a Scottish family. Let us introduce ourselves! Hello, all of you! My name is David McKinley. I am the father of the family. On behalf of my dearest people, on behalf of my country let me greet you and introduce my family to you.

-          Scotland! 

-         A land of castles,

-         A land of lakes,

-         A land of wide open space,

-          Our land can be honored a lot!

-         I am proud of being a Scott!

-          

-         And here is my wife Mary McKinley, a nice woman.

-         Mary McKinley:  Hello, dear friends! My name is Mary McKinley.

-         Despite of the fact that I am quite pretty,

-         I am also kind and really witty!

-         Love my country a lot –

-         Its mysterious legends

-         With original plots!

-         And here are our children – Jenny, Alan and Nancy.

-         Jenny :

-          Hello!

-          I am Jenny McKinley.

-         Still a little bit small,

-         I love playing and singing

-          And my mother and all!

-         I attend a nursery school

-         Which is good and honestly cool!

-          

Alan: Hello!

I am Alan McKinley. I am a Scottish schoolboy.

I am bouncy, full of cheer,

Very helpful and always near.

Though singing is not my teacup,

I am able some tunes to pick up!

Mary: 

And now meet my elder daughter Nancy!

She is able new things to learn and to fancy!

Her love for studies grows on and on,

Let’s sing  a traditional  Scottish song

Bananas Are the Best

Children's Song

Chorus
Banana, banana, bananas are the best
A nice squishy middle in a big yella vest

(Chorus)

Fifty million monkeys can't be wrong - banana!
From totie wans tae Old King Kong - banana!

(Chorus)

It's a banana dream - banana!
We're all going to SCREAM - banana!
Can ah have a ba-na-na?

David: Well done, children!  Now I’d like to introduce my cousin

James McAlison.

-         He is young and strong,

-         He can play active games for long!!

-         He has practiced first footing a lot,

-         James is really a true Scott!

-         Presenter 3: And what is first footing? On Hogmanay – a Scottish New Year?

-         Presenter 4: “First-footer is the first person to set foot inside your home on New Year’s Day. It can be a friend, relative, neighbour or even a family member BUT that person cannot be INSIDE the house when the clock strikes midnight.

-         Presenter 1: How very interesting! Can a brother be the first-footer?

-         Presenter 4: Yes, he can! But he needs to be outside your house before midnight and can onle re-enter after the clock has struck midnight!

-         David: Yes, sometimes several people are chosen first-footers for a particular street/village and they go from house to house bringing good luck to its inha bitants as well as gifts!

-         Presenter 4: Traditionally, first-footers would carry a lump of coal, some salt, black bun (which is a fruit cake), shortbread (a pancake) and a golden coin!

-         James:

I always take a piece of coal

     to bring some warmth into each home!

    I bring a piece of bread or bun

    To feed all people of the farm!

    A coin of gold I also bring

    For all of them to feel supreme!

Presenter 2: I hear that the first-footer should be a dark-haired man!

Presenter 4: That is really so! This is considered lucky and a good omen for the coming year!

David:  That’s why James is always a perfect first-footer!

            Children!

            Let’s sing a cheerful kids’ song !

All the presenters and the members of the family: OK! Let’s!
