"The holiday of the Red hill"

 

The first Sunday after Easter is called in different ways. The most famous of them is Krasnaya Gorka. The Red Hill was celebrated by the people with many rituals. Young people on Krasnaya Gorka performed the rite of invocation of spring. They were gathering on the high ground before dawn. Such slides were already drying out after the winter and were called red, which meant 'beautiful', 'funny'. It was customary to perform rituals on them, to burn bonfires in honor of the Slavic gods. Treats were laid out in the center of the circle, and the fun began — round dances, spring chants. This rite defined the main motif of the Red Hill as a celebration of spring, youth and love. Representatives of the Slavic ECO will hold games and fun.

"We are learning to live in a diverse world. Tolerance is the road to peace"

On the International Day of Tolerance, the Friendship House holds a discussion during which college students take an active part in discussing the principles of tolerance and its role in strengthening unity and harmony in society.

Using concrete examples, the participants in the discussion are convinced that it is impossible to be tolerant towards such negative phenomena as crime, drug addiction, indifference, immorality. Students take an active part in the games offered by the topics:  "Greetings", "Envelope of revelations", "Kind words and wishes to friends" and give examples of tolerant behavior in everyday life. Ensuring the unity of the multinational people of Kazakhstan is not only an achievement of the past and present for us, but also a task of the future.
