''Varró Dániel" Reading Marathon

Varró Dániel is the favorite poet of the V. B class.
On 19th and 26th of October we read  his poem:,,Túl a Maszat-hegyen".

Everybody was reading, including their form master and the librarian!
The reading was  "condimented” with an audition of the songs from the music hall with the same name sung by the actors from Cluj.   
Many thanks Pethő Ibolya, V. B. form master, for inspiration and common work!
