Martins took place with the trade, songs and puzzles in Rikava

For many years, Martin's market is traditionally held at THE Rikavas primary school. This year, in order to involve more parish residents, the Martins trade was held in a cultural house. With their parents' support, the pupils had made a variety of carts, and they could buy them at Martins's market.

This year, the old-class lawyer Aija Cirules-Leidumas, under the direction of music teacher Aija Cirules-Leidumas, had “collected” a large-scale witch-song harvest. We therefore decided not only to organise the market but also to show vocal and literary skills. It was also important to learn more about Martin's traditions.

Among the beautiful melodic poets Leontinne Apshenieces and Composer Sandra Mežores songs, the older class pupils read their collected literary works about letters. The participants of the Latvian language and literature teacher Livija Smynova were asked by dough and enthusiastic tasks, introducing the proverbs and beliefs about Martin. On the other hand, the 6 th grade school students John and Olga were singing Latvian peoples.

In the festival, the leader of the cultural house, Inese, took all the attendants in toys and games. But the spiritual pier and the aromatic bomb tea superseded the traditional Martine—a cocktail.
