First we held student´s speech and a song through schoolradio to all the classes so the whole school was aware what was going on. After that about 60 children gathered to schoolyard with their teachers where we sang a season-song and plant the tree (Larix Sibrica). Children enjoyed the happening eventough it was pouring rain.
