In the weeks leading up to Sint Nick's birthday (present giving night "pakjesavond"), the kids are madly tidying up their autumn work pieces at school and getting busy with all their Sinterklaas things.............making steamboats, decorating shoes (that go near the fireplace for maybe a present) and colouring in Zwarte Piets.
The last day of school before "pakjesavond", Sinterklaas comes to the school. (I think he visits every primary school in the Netherlands.) The whole school went on a trip through the village and the snow (this year) to pick up Saint Nick and his helpers.

Then back at school the morning is filled with singing and games all for Saint Nick. The kids had a ball of course!
