The legend of the Golden Duck

How the fairy tale was created…

The performace of fairy tale we started with a contest for students and parents. We asked them to write their favourite fairy tales. Students were very exited about the work.

Lots of students made books, comic books or leaflets about their favourite stories:

Jury, which was Mrs Iwona Krzemińska, Mrs Monika Pondo and Miss Magdalena Rychalska, have chosen 3 stories. They were made in different style and in different techniques.

The winners are: I Marta Bryzik from 6 a grade II Daria Macionczyk from 5 c grade III Agnieszka Chudzińska from 5 c grade

Then students prepared stage designs and scenes.

We made puppets and learnt our roles:

Finally we started rehearsals. We decided to perform the legend about Golden Duck.

And this is the story about the Golden Duck…

Once upon a time, there was a Count von Gashin who lived in the castle in Toszek.

On his wedding day, he gave his future wife, Countess Gizela, a very special gift.

The Golden Duck was the most valuable heirloom of the Gashins family - it was a sitting golden duck in its silver nest surrounded by 11 golden eggs.

One day, when the count was out from the castle, the great fire flared up.

Countess Gizela took the duck and ran away to the dungeons.

After the fire Gizela was found unconscious and soon she died. So far, no one knows where the Golden Duck is.

In the end we showed our performance to pupils who liked it very much.
