Our special needs students singing Janeiras (as in Janeiro -January). Singing the Janeiras is a tradition in Portugal that consists of singing songs through the streets,/homes by groups of people announcing the birth of Jesus, wishing a happy new year. These groups go door to door, asking the residents for the remains of the Christmas Parties. Nowadays, these ‘leftovers’ often translate into money. In this case the money goes for the students activities.
