“Nisseunger” is replaced with “people” and “christmas” with “winter”. Students at Nylund school in Stavanger also does not sing the text of “Delicious is the earth”. The need to de hum.

Juleavslutningen of the school year is renamed to “desembersamling” and the lyrics in christmas songs students will be singing are changed, writes Stavanger Aftenblad.

“Nisseunger” replaced with “humans”, while “soon, christmas is here again” be sung “now is the winter here on the new”. “Santa come here” is replaced with “our friends come here”, and “julelykt” is replaced with “vinterlykt”.

the Principal at Nylund school, Frøydis M. S. Anthonsen have not responded to School requests in the evening, but to Stavanger Aftenblad she says that two years ago was one parent who complained that the school let up to julegudstjeneste.

Therefore, tried established management board to take this into account and accommodate the wishes of the parents, says Anthonsen.

On the question of why the words “christmas” and “goblins” is replaced, and students have to settle with to hum “Delicious is the earth”, answers Anthonsen following:

– Someone who doesn’t want julebudskapet would perceive it as offensive that the word “christmas” are included, for they hang themselves up in that when the word “christmas” is, so it must be something christian.

commissioner of education in the municipality of Stavanger, Jørn Pedersen, do not know the case other than through what has been in the media.

I have not had the opportunity to investigate this further tonight, but will contact the principal of the Nylund school early tomorrow morning to hear what is behind, he says to VG.

ROLES does not agree with the principal

According to the principal Anthonsen, there is disagreement among the parents at Nylund school about what the content will be in this year’s desembersamling. While some want to keep the old christmas habits, others will have a more alternative collection, says she to Stavanger Aftenblad.

We have established management board said that we are for another solution that provides a greater degree of choice in the sense of the students, if parents want julegudstjeneste, can walk on it, ” says Berentsen.

The students who have parents who do not want the children to be in worship, after FAUs suggestions have a julesamling at school with less christian elements. Those students, who because of their parents ‘ beliefs can’t be with any of these events, with FAUs arrangement to get the regular teaching.

Think the humanistic version would support the parents

the ROLES come according to Berentsen with his proposal in October, but it was voted down by majorities because the teachers thought it was too short a time to implement it. The arrangement is adopted carried to the next year.

” We are basically reluctant to add us into the details of musikkundervisningen. I realize that parents who do it can be a pest and nuisance, ” admits ROLES-leader.

He said, however, on the contrary no to that, the students were to sing a rewritten version as a Humanist Publishing house has made of “Delicious is the earth”.

– I realized that it would encounter more parents in bibelbeltet here. Therefore, I withdrew properly in the emergency brakes when the principal asked me to council about it, ” says Berentsen.

– Omskrivningene of the other songs I think are strange, but they’re not so bad that we as parents should intervene with an attempt detaljregulering.

– Non-believers reacted to the påskegudstjeneste

After the ROLES-leader Arvid Berentsen know of, there has not been any complaints from the parents in advance of this year’s julesamling.

– In connection with a påskegudstjeneste a few years ago, it was complained that the students participated in the preaching of the gospel, when the song påskesanger. As far as I know, there was a family with non-believers background that reacted, ” he says.

Berentsen do not think that omskrivingene of christmas songs will get the parents to request exemption from sangsamlingen. But:

I’m quite sure that it would not become something of a row in the foreldregruppen if the songs had been sung in its originalversjon, ” he says.

Berentsen points out that the school did not have any revised scheme in connection with the Lucia celebration, which is to the memory of a catholic saint.

Nissen, who is based at a different catholic saint, is being censored because he is not stueren. I understand not why one saint is stueren and not the other, ” says Berentsen.

– do you Think the children at the school felt to be excluded with the old scheme?

I have not perceived that there has been some form of tvangsforkynning. If you had an active registration, it would have been ok. I don’t think that kids have a pain of going into a mosque where it is requested, and I have not problems with that the kids are in a church, the answer ROLES-leader.
