First Man-made Flight“In 1876 Alexander Mozhayskyi flew 20 metres in steam-powered, heavier-than-air aircraft of his own design inVoronovytsia, Vinnytsia region, Ukraine. He flew again twicein 1886. That is why Ukrainians call Voronovytsia the cradle ofaviation.”

The inventor’s aeronautic breakthrough predates the Decem-ber 17, 1903 Wright brothers’ attempt by a full two decades.

Folk ceremonies dating backto ancient times and markingthe opening and closing of theharvest period. These ceremo-nies were characterized by asequence of magical ritualsthat interacted with naturalprocesses and phenomena. Thespiritualization of nature wasat the essence of these rites,which could influence criti-cally the fate of the harvest.

Zazhynky marked the com-mencement of harvesting andtook place at the end of Juneor the beginning of July. Inthe morning, all the reaperswent into the fields together.The master or village eldertook off his hat, turned to thesun, and uttered a special in-cantation requesting the fieldsto surrender their harvest andto give the reapers sufficientstrength with which to gatherit in. In more recent times, theincantation was replaced witha prayer. Then, the mistress or

a woman reputed to belucky (called postadny-tsia in some regions)cut the first sheaf ofgrain, which was calledvoievoda. Women reap-ers rolled around on acleared patch of the fieldwith the purpose of ab-sorbing strength fromthe soil. The postadnytsiapresented the masterwith the first sheaf afterwhich he offered every-one liquor and food. In theevening, the voievoda sheafwas brought to the master’shouse and was placed in theicon corner where it was tostand until the end of theharvesting.

Obzhynky marked the endof the harvesting, usually atthe end of July or the begin-ning of August. After the lastclutch of grain had been cut,a solemn procession aroundthe field took place. A clump

of unreaped wheat or rye leftat the edge of the field was tiedinto a sheaf known alterna-tively as “Volos’s beard,”“Elijah’s beard,” “theSaviour’s beard,” “Grand-father’s beard,” “goat,” or sim-ply “beard” and was left as anoffering to the gods of thefields. In some regions the“beard” was thought to con-tain the benevolent spirits ofancestors who would protectthe fields. Thereafter the reap-ers walked in a processionfrom the fields to the master’shouse, carrying the last sheaf(ostalets). The sheaf was thenpresented to the master andmistress accompanied withwishes of happiness and abun-dance. The master carried theceremonial gift into the houseand placed it in the icon cor-ner. A harvest feast ensued,whereupon everyone wastreated to drinks and food inthe house or yard. These ritu-als, which are very similar towedding rituals, were accom-panied with special songs.

Harvest songsClass of ritual songs and lyricfolk songs associated with theharvest period and divisibleinto three groups that coin-cided with the preparationsfor harvesting, the harvest it-self, and the aftermath of theharvest.

Zazhynky songs accompa-nied the rituals at the begin-ning of the harvest such as the

tying of the first sheaf.They bestow honourupon the master andmistress and ask na-ture to yield its fruitsand grant the reapersstrength to ensure aneasy and successfulharvesting period.

Harvesting (zhny-varski) songs werenot associated withany form of ritual.They were sung while

working in the fields or walk-ing to and from the fields.Most of them spoke of thereaper’s hard work from sun-rise to sunset. Besides fieldlabour, they depict relationsbetween the farmhands andthe master. Harvesting songsoften address the forces ofnature: they rebuke the sunfor rising too early and settingtoo late, or ask the moon tolight the way home.

Obzhynky songs are relatedto the rituals that close theharvest. By theme they can bedivided into several subgroups:n finishing songs, which are

connected with the reapingof the last field

n songs for the tying of the“beard” at the border of themown field

n songs for the tying of the lastsheaf and obzhynky garland

n songs accompanying theprocession to the master’scottage

n songs for the arrival at themaster’s cottage

n songs sung in the master’shouseThe composition of harvest

songs is distinct. They areremarkable for their emotivelanguage, colourful epithets,and hyperbolic comparisons.Psychological parallelism andthe personification of naturalentities are typical of thesesongs. Their melodies are ar-chaic and closely related towedding songs. from Encyclopedia of Ukraine

My holubtsi taste better than your cabbage rollsThis session will address the issue of language retention and the impacton cultural identity and cultural heritage.

Bishop Filevich Ukrainian Bilingual School celebrates30 years of Bilingual Education under the Big TentSubmitted by Olya Kowaluk,Vice-Principal

The 2009-2010 school yearmarked a year of great cel-ebration at Bishop FilevichUkrainian Bilingual School inSaskatoon. Thirty years havepassed since its humble begin-nings of 15 students in Kin-dergarten to a thriving pro-gram with 183 students inkindergarten to Grade 8.

The following subjects aretaught in Ukrainian: Ukrai-nian Language Arts, SocialStudies, Religion, Health,Physical Education and ArtsEducation. Math, Science andEnglish language arts are con-ducted in English.

Bethlehem High School of-fers a continuance of the pro-gram in Ukrainian Languageand Christian Ethics to Grade12 with the students able topractise their language skills,culminating with a studentexchange with a high schoolin Chernivtsi, Ukraine.

This also marked the firstyear Ukrainian Christian Eth-ics was offered at Bishop JamesMahoney High School.

The idea of initiating a Ukrai-nian bilingual program in the1970s came from members ofthe Ukrainian community inSaskatoon who appealed to theCatholic School Board. Dr.Walter Podiluk was the direc-tor of education at that time.Parents had hope and aspira-tions that Ukrainian heritageshould be preserved throughthe language while maintain-ing culture and tradition.

In 30 years our school hasreceived enthusiastic supportfrom parents and grandpar-ents. To see the language flour-ishing in mainstream educa-tion is most definitely a gift.

The past five years has seenimmigration from Ukraine. Ourschool provides these young-

sters an opportunity to retaintheir mother tongue while learn-ing English. The new immi-grants also provide a linguisticexample to our Canadian chil-dren in the classrooms.

As a bilingual school wecontinue to grow profession-ally, providing all students withup-to-date Saskatchewan Cur-riculum. Our 31st year will seecurrent staff collaborating torewrite the Ukrainian Lan-guage Arts Curriculum.

We are extremely pleased ofour partnership with the Sistersof St. Joseph and St. Joseph’sSeniors Residence. The Sistershave provided us with oppor-tunities to teach our childrento “Reach Out and Transform

Our World” through our in-volvement with raising funds tohelp support work done withorphanages in Ukraine andworking with the seniors at theresidence.

To celebrate our 30th yearthe School Community Coun-cil wanted to host a “Partyunder the Big Tent.” The eventtook place at Bishop FilevichSchool (125 105th Street West)in May 2010. The décor dis-played a party feel with thou-sands of balloons and stream-ers adorning the hallways. Eachclassroom presented archivalmaterials from pictures, con-certs, musicals and languageacquisition examples from thestudents. Outdoors our guests

enjoyed astro jumps and danc-ing under the big tent to “Tyti Tam.” The BBQ meal wasenjoyed in the gymnasium thatwas decorated as a forest.Current students from Kin-dergarten to Grade 8 enter-tained the crowd with a med-ley of Ukrainian songs.

We are very proud of ouraccomplishments as a schooland are very proud of everystudent who comes throughour doors. We are a Byzantinefaith-filled welcoming com-munity and we continue to“Grow in Faith, Reach Outand Transform Our World.”We look forward to many moreyears of Ukrainian BilingualEducation.
