  2. Primary school students’ reflections on the Latvian culture and the importance of its tradition. Latvia is one of the Northen European nations which partecipates in Project Comenius. At school ,we saw a video about the Festival of Latvian song and dance that they celebrates every five years and it was declared Masterpiece of the World’s Oral Inviolable and Cultural Property. When approaching the date for the great Latvian Festival, all Latvia starts searching signals and symbols celebrating the awaited week of the traditional songs and dances. The most important symbols of the Latvian culture are: God’s symbol representing male strength. Mara’s symbol: she is the material goddess protecting women and fertility. Laima’s broom that is like a bird’s feather. The Sun’s symbol representing life. Austra’s tree protecting families and parents. Laima’ symbol Janis’s symbol representing folklore, it burns on the tree branches. The Latvian traditions are deeply linked to the peasant life and to the rhythms punctuating it. The folklore, orally transmitted, is rich of tales, stories and legends. A graffiti artist painted the symbol “ THE MORNING STAR” on the side of a car. The Festival of song and dance is so important that every place , house and space is full of symbols representing their culture and tradition.
