Between New Year's Eve and Epiphany
groups of children go from house to house.


They say some special rhymes and
sing some special songs for the residents.

Then the biggest one which only
attends them writes on the door:
20 C + M + B 09
This means Caspar, Melchior, Balthasar
or better:
Christus Mansionem Benedicat

After all the residents spend some money for poor children in the box they have with them. Every group wants to collect the most money to bring it to the church on Epiphany.

Can our french partners guess which boy and girl
from class 3e are disguised (the boy with the star
and the smallest girl? What are their names?
