This was a day before New Year, Christine took a break from work to decorate the house and prepare food. The kids helped her. When Raoul returned home, he liked the scenery very much, praised his wife and even distributed candies to the children. At eleven o’clock Christine and Raoul hide presents under the Christmas tree, at half past eleven the Persians also came, kids were very happy. It was 11:40 one of the kid jack went into the room he sat under the Christmas tree, he was watching TV. Suddenly he felt something in his hand, turned around and could not believe his eyes there was a present.

Jack started crying and also thought: but…mom and dad say….that Santa hide presents at 12 o’clock that mean that mom and was lying. He runs to their sisters and tell them about that, they all started crying. That was a very big problem. The parents didn’t want those kids now that Santa was not real. They decided to tell kids that Santa had a lot of work to do and so he decided to bring it earlier and hid the gifts. The children believed this and happily ran away to play. New Year was saved and the family happily celebrated the New Year.

In 2022 I want to speak English very well and do lots of good things for people. I want to be best in class too.  

Mariam Davitadze – New Year story

New Year was coming. The village was full of happiness, but there was one house, which belonged to Ebenezer Scrooge and his granddaughter Christine, they never had a Happy New Year, they hated New Year because there was one thing that nobody else knew. The thing was that when Christine’s grandmother died her grandfather Ebenezer never laughed again, so she decided to wish her grandmother at New Year, she heard that New Year wishes were always coming true. After that day they started to love New Year. They always remembered that New Year made happiness in people’s hearts. They were as happy as everyone else, they made food for poor people and they had a Happy New Year. I want everyone to solve their problems and have a Happy 2022 Year. 

She told to her grandfather and wished her grandmother to stay with her all the time, but this wish didn’t come true. After this, Ebenezer and Christine started to hate New Year. Time passed and a man called Raul visited them. He was talking about New Year and the happiness that makes in people’s hearts. Ebenezer and Christine didn’t listen to him but when he left they started thinking about his words. They realized that New Year cannot revive a dead woman but she will always be in their hearts.

Ilia Hagani – A trip to New York

Raoul and Christine got on the plane, they wanted to go to New York. On the plane they saw a man that was wearing a black cloth and a white mask. That was very suspicious; he was like Erik. Before they could get out of the plane, it started to move but that man who was like Erik didn’t see them. When the plane landed they didn’t see that man again, he was like a ghost. So they thought it was their imagination. Two weeks later they got married, at their wedding they saw a man in black cloth and a white mask. He walked behind a tree and disappeared. They were very scared, but they decided to talk about what they saw later. One week later, Christine and Raoul were shopping when they saw that man on the plane and at the wedding. So they decided to talk to that man. They found out he was Erik , he explained how he got out of the opera house and when he saw they were getting married he was very furious . He made a building like the opera house in New York. Two years later the building was ready, Raoul and Christine saw it. They decided to go inside the building. It was just like the opera house, but cooler. They were standing on a trap door and they fell in. They saw Erik but they pushed them and used a rope to get out and they called the police. The cops got there and arrested Erik. New York wasn’t a happy place for them, so they moved to England. 

A new friend Ebenezer Scrooge

When they got to England, it was Christmas. Raoul and Christine had no money, they were very hungry, nobody helped them, and in the end they met a nice man called Scrooge. They became friends, when he found out they didn’t have money he invited them to his home, he fed them with traditional England’s food. And also, he gave them money to buy a house, and they lived happily ever after near Ebenezer’s house.

In 2022 I want to be happier with my family, and achieve many goals. Wish you a happy new year 🙂

Giorgi Arabuli – Tom Sawyer’s Wonderful New Year

A boy dressed weirdly sat on a small, brilliantly painted fence far away in America, spinning a globe strangely. The aroma of roasted turkey wafted through the house, caressing his nostrils. Aunt Polly might be seen in the kitchen with pies in her hands in the moonlight. On the roof of the house, Christmas lights twinkled.. Tom spun the unusual globe once more, then softly opened the door and walked by the Christmas tree, as if oblivious to its brilliance. He removed the traditional Georgian outfit “Chokha” from his closet, which he had purchased from Khevsuri Giorgi while in Georgia. He returned to the garden and examined the standing globe on the table, which had only two countries marked on it. What happened to the others? Tom reclined on a wooden swing chair, wrapped in a quilt, and closed his eyes, perplexed. Songs and fireworks mixed with a delicious smell came from Aunt Polly’s kitchen, and the “Chokha fitted him perfectly.” He tried to put back one bullet-case that didn’t seem to fit. OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD, The lead of the bullet-case dropped, and colourful balls spilled out. What exactly is this? Tom pondered. If I were with Giorgi, he’d explain it to me!

As soon as he said that, the globe began spinning at top speed. Suddenly, a tremendous wind blew in from nowhere, carrying everything in the air with it. Tom sat in the Swing chair for quite some time. He finally couldn’t hold on any longer and let go of the hand. He couldn’t even figure out how the odd globe snatched him.

 He heard music and recognized some phrases when he opened his eyes: “Mravalzhamier” “Ghmerti” “Sitsotskhle,” I’m in Georgia! He yelled and wore “Chokha” like a true Georgian.

How do I inform Giorgi that I’ve arrived? In his ears, he heard some noises. It’s a magical night today. Wish you had colourful balls! Tom’s fist was filled with bright balls once he opened his eyes wide. I’d like to be where Giorgi is. When the wind blew, Tom entered the lovely realm.

  There were many children in an open space, and you could hear music, laughter, and joyful dances, which enhanced the beauty of the area. Tom was staring at the Georgian snowman, perplexed, as he couldn’t figure out where Santa was. However, he soon recognized Santa in the sled with reindeer. The kids were confused as they stared at Tom. Why do you think that is? He couldn’t understand why Georgians never wore “Chokha” on their colourful trousers and finned hats, and why a thumb from the trainer didn’t make him happy. Tom heard a familiar voice, he opened his eyes wider, he listened carefully, and he began to look around. He recognized Giorgi at the colourful couch, he was happily delivering presents, and Tom froze in the same spot, returning to his own reality. Aunt Polly used to give out gifts to the homeless, orphan, and street kids, he remembered. Tom was also helping her, and Huck Finn was running around in the small town of St. Petersburg, throwing sweets at him. He was hanging Christmas toys on the fence for some.

  Someone ran over Tom, why are you standing here? The ball will be held here soon. You are going to obstruct.

 Tom muttered something. The child was puzzled. 

 – What’s your name? You appear to be stranger.

 – What’s your name, or what’s your surname?

I’m looking for Giorgi, Tom said in an awkward Georgian. He was giving out gifts some place around here, but he has since vanished.

Please use this phone to contact him. Do you have His phone number?

What exactly is this? Tom pondered, is it possible to have a phone without a line? This is something I’m not familiar with.

What?? – The second child was taken aback.

Have you ever come upon a phone?

Are you an alien?

Giorgi, one of my friends, is Khevsuri. He’s a fantastic young man. I paid him a visit once. He was handing out gifts while sitting on the couch.

That’s our Gio! Yelled a stranger. Come on, I’ll take you to him! – They hurried together, holding hands.

Giorgi was standing on stage, hugging and singing with orphan children. Tom dashed over to them and hugged Giorgi.

Remember? I promised I would return!

I promised that we would give orphans gifts for Christmas and the New Year!

Giorgi was babbling and embracing Tom in the Heart, astonished. That is a New Year’s gift. I’m overjoyed! I’m overjoyed! Tom was overjoyed as well.

  I’m Giorgi Arabuli, a happy and fortunate young man. Do you know why I’m so fortunate? God had been contemplating my birth for 16 years, and just as everyone thought he had changed his mind, I was born. That’s why I’m known as Wish Boy.

On a harsh planet, I had to commemorate the year 2022. The world was changed by the pandemic but I believe this is my year. My year is 2022, the year of the tiger. That is why I am confident that everything will work out! I want to be able to hug my friends without being afraid. Participate in the Olympic Games. I wish to aid abandoned people and children so that my mother and I can continue our favourite job. Let there be peace on Earth! Merry Christmas (Christmas greetings.)

Tekla Koridze – Scrooge’s New Year

Since Scrooge didn’t like New Year/Christmas, I think I should let him explore Georgia because Georgia celebrates New Year differently. On 1st January and also 14th January. They celebrate New Year two times. Scrooge was very amazed by Georgia’s New Year celebration, Scrooge really liked how the community behaves around guests.  After 12 a.m. they go to their neighbors and they greet them with sweets. It’s also important to add “Chichilaki” to the Christmas tree, but Scrooge was very confused about this.  In this modern world Scrooge didn’t like loud noises and fireworks kind of annoyed him. He thought   because of this kids get injured so he thought of something else. He thought of a firework that releases candy and it wouldn’t have noise either. He was happy and the kids were happy too. Scrooge went grateful to his country, he was telling his Grandsons of the Georgia celebration.  

Saba Tsirekidze – Ebenezer and Kora

Last year Ebenezer and Kora got married. On December 5 of each year they buy gilded Christmas tree toys, rains of rainbow colors, rainbow lights and everything needed to decorate a Christmas tree. Next night the robber robbed Ebenezer. The robber has taken money, toys, rains, lights because those things were very expensive. In the morning when Ebenezer found out that he had been robbed. He informed the police that he had been robbed. Police started to investigate. Police found some evidences. Six days later they found 3 men, one of them may have been a robber but none of them is a robber. After one week police said to Ebenezer that they could not find. Ebenezer and Cora started to get nervous because police couldn’t find the robber. Ebenezer hired an investigator with last money he had. The Investigator started to investigate. The investigator found evidences in one little house and the investigator went in the house. Next, he started looking for some clues. He found only a fingerprint. When the investigator compared this fingerprint with other fingerprint that he found in Ebenezer’s house were the same. When he saw that fingerprints is were the same he realized that the little house is a robber’s base. The investigator came back to the little house for more clues. He can’t found anything and then he thick: if I wait for the robber to come I can capture him. When the robber came in his base investigator captured him and brought him to the police. Police arrested the robber and found money and Christmas tree toys, rains, lights and other things and gave to Ebenezer.

When Ebenezer got back his money and Christmas tree toys Ebenezer and Cora decorated the tree again and next, they started other preparations for the New Year. Lastly, they have a very Happy New Year. The end.
