This was the first time St. Nikolaus visited us at our new location. Not only did he bring little gifts for all children, he also told them the story of the historic St. Nicholas, Bishop of Myra.
And St. Nick did not come alone! He was accompanied by an ensemble from the Wisconsin Chamber Choir, who led us through the singing of some German Christmas carols.
It was a lovely event and our warm thanks go to everybody who helped with the organization, especially Krista Spiro.
We also thank the Clasen Family (of Clasen’s European Bakery) for their generous donation of cookies and other delicacies.
We wish everyone a peaceful holiday season! Thanks for celebrating with us and thanks for supporting the German School of Madison.
