Da, frumos că episcopul Vincenție a venit la sărbătoare. Mi-a plăcut că au dat cinstea de a ridica steagurile lui Serghei Konstantinovici de la pedagogie, lui Ivan Bolbasov de la educație fizică și lui Eduard Bakin de la rusă și literatură. Tradiția cu panglica pe Copacul Cunoașterii mi se pare o idee simplă și bună pentru boboci.
