Foreign students of our University had the opportunity to learn about elements of Polish culture, customs, and cuisine related to Christmas in Poland during another “Seasonal Meeting,” which took place on December 11, 2025.
The Vice-Rector for Student Affairs and Education, Prof. Artur Maciąg, warmly welcomed the guests and extended Christmas wishes. The festive atmosphere was shared by other representatives of the university authorities who attended the event: vice-rectors, deans, and Erasmus+ faculty coordinators.
Students from various countries, studying full-time or participating in academic mobility under the Erasmus+ programme, had the chance not only to discover Polish Christmas traditions but also to learn about holidays celebrated in Algeria.
The artistic part of the event was provided by the Big Band “Boogie Band” from the Ludomir Różycki State Music School in Kielce, led by Mr. Marcin Stojek, who performed global Christmas hits in jazz arrangements.
Santa Claus also made an appearance and presented attendees with Christmas gifts.
The meeting was organized by the Department for Academic Staff Development and International Cooperation, with the support and involvement of the Student Government.
We hope that the Christmas season in Poland, despite the natural longing for home, will be filled with warmth and joy for our international students, and that the New Year 2026 brings many successes.
