On October 14th, a special celebratory evening was held in tutor group 10107421. The event began with an informative session. The students learned that Mother's Day is a holiday with deep historical roots, which has its own unique traditions in every country. The students were surprised to discover how mothers are honored in different parts of the world. This comparison helped them realize that, despite cultural differences, the feeling of gratitude towards one's mother is universal and unites people all over the world.
The theoretical knowledge was immediately put to use in an engaging quiz. The most touching part of the program was the screening of the short film "Mama." This film was filled with simple yet vital life truths and left no one indifferent.
On October 16th, a tutor-led session was held in group 10804622, where students watched an educational video about the origin and history of Mother's Day. After the theoretical part, the students participated in an interactive quiz. A particular point of interest was the discussion of how Mother's Day is celebrated in Belarus and China. The students shared personal observations and cultural characteristics:
In Belarus, the holiday is officially celebrated in October, and it is accompanied by congratulations, school and family events, and expressions of respect and love for mothers.
In China, although Mother's Day is not an official public holiday, it is actively supported by young people and is celebrated in May—most often with gifts, flowers, and family gatherings.
All the events of the week were held in a warm and friendly atmosphere, reminding us of the importance of a mother's love, care, and support. Such events not only help to broaden one's horizons but also foster respect for family values.
