For many British citizens worldwide, Christmas is a time to return home and spend time with each other. Traditional symbols of Christmas, such as trees decorated with tinsel, colourful baubles, a star and tiny fairy lights and a Santa Claus sitting in his sleigh with a sack of gifts pulled by reindeer, will be displayed all across the UK. Lunch on Christmas Day for British people typically includes roast turkey, roast potatoes, vegetables, gravy, cranberry sauce and a Yorkshire pudding, followed by a dessert of Christmas Pudding, set on fire before eating.

不論身在何方，圣誕節(jié)都是英國人合家歡聚的佳節(jié)。傳統(tǒng)的圣誕象征有用銀光閃閃的錫紙、五彩斑斕的飾品、璀璨閃耀的星星和美麗的仙女燈裝飾的常青松樹，還有坐在雪橇上的圣誕老人和身邊馴鹿拉著的一袋禮物。圣誕節(jié)當天的午餐是一年中最豐盛的大餐，有令人垂涎欲滴的烤火雞、烤土豆、烤蔬菜和美味的肉汁、紅莓醬和約克郡布丁等，還有傳統(tǒng)的圣誕甜點——火焰布丁。

On this festive occasion, Wellington pupils sang carols on stage, the Wellington community enjoyed delicious festive foods from various vendors, and Santa and the elf sat for family photos and shared gingerbread man and Santa hats, what a joy. After an exhilarating light show, the Christmas tree was finally lit in an exciting countdown. The event brought warmth and love to the hearts of those international residents staying in the city this Christmas. What an excellent fair to share this fabulous community event with all our loved ones.
