Big Dance 2012

 It is great to have a good family and true friends. The students  and teachers of Secondary school #38, Sevastopol are lucky to be a part of Connecting Classrooms family and have true friends in and around Ukraine.

 On 18 May, 200 pupils from 15 Ukrainian schools took part in the Big Dance festival, which is a global initiative of the Cultural Olympiad in the lead-up to the London 2012 Games.

When the Olympic Torch arrived to Britain on 18 May, thousands of school students performed 5 min dance routine in more than 100 countries around the world in an attempt to break a new Guinness World Record.

  Dmitry Pechenka, Veronika Smey, Lisa Hovracheva, Vadim Komogaev, Yulia Komarnitskaya,  Yulia Mitroshina with their teachers Kurilenko D.A. and Stepanenko L.Yu. represented  Secondary School # 38 at this international event at P.Tychyna Gymnasia  in Kyiv.
