Valentine's Day is a holiday observed on February 14th. It is celebrated in many countries around the world although it is not a holiday in most of them. The motto of this day is chosen from Robert Browning who said
"Take away love and our earth is a tomb".
The day was first associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished in the 18th century England.
In recent years, Romania has also started celebrating Valentine's Day. Romania has also associated the spring festival called "Dragobete" with Valentine's Day.
At "Mediensis" Technical College, our students have decorated the foreign language laboratory, have surfed the Internet, solved Valentine's worksheets, listened classical music interpreted by Andre Rieu.
They have used many sites for doing their research related to Valentine's Day, the most important of them being: www.wikipedia.org, www.education.com, www.history.com and www.pininterest.com.
Teacher Angela Porime and her students wish you all "Happy Valentine's Day"!
