On Thursday, December 15th, we had the last practice session of the year and for the children’s group, we had arranged a small event including some demo and a short social activity with coffee, “julmust”, saffron buns and gingerbread (typical Swedish things for the season). Some members unfortunately were unable to attend but it was still quite a large attendance. Many of the children’s parents and siblings were also there to see what they practiced during the year.
