New Year's skit for high school students “Year of the Tiger according to different traditions”
Recently it has become fashionable to be a patriot. In this funny New Year's skit, high school students will show the most diverse and ridiculous traditions of other countries and in the end everyone will come to the conclusion that our traditions are the best and simplest!
Teacher: Yes, guys. New Years is soon. We need to do an original matinee, and not like last time - a round dance was held and then dispersed. Should be fun. Make a modern holiday!
Student 1: Can I blow something up?
Teacher: No explosions! This is a children's party, safety comes first.
Student 2: Is it possible to break something? Teacher: No! You’re a schoolboy, use your head, remember what interesting things you learned in class.
Student 3: I recently read about New Year’s traditions from different countries. We can celebrate the New Year in the style of some country...
Teacher: This is a great idea! Well done... Just think about it. Maybe instead of a Christmas tree we’ll decorate a palm tree, and instead of a round dance we’ll dance some kind of tribal dance! Let's meet tomorrow and show you what you've done. Let's get creative!
On the stage they are the same, but with props (a glass of water or a water pistol; a log; a large box of matches; a garbage bag with small garbage (pieces of paper, cardboard, etc.); a cracker with confetti.)
Three students stand around a table with props. The teacher enters.
The 1st student pours water on him).
Teacher: What are you doing? Why did you splash me? It's not funny!
Student 1: Happy Thai New Year! Hooray!
The teacher wipes his face.
Teacher: What kind of stupid jokes...
Student 1: It's no joke. Dousing yourself with water is a Thai New Year's tradition.
Student 2 rolls a log to the teacher’s feet and picks up matches.
Student 2: Now let's burn! How the Europeans burned their Christmas log!
Teacher: Stop! No need to burn me or the log! This tradition does not suit us.
Student 2 sadly rolls the log under the table. Student 3 comes out with a trash bag and starts throwing trash around.
Teacher: What are you doing? Everything has just been washed for the holiday! Stop immediately.
Student 3: What am I? It was the Italians who came up with the idea of throwing garbage out onto the street on New Year's Day!
Teacher: Stop, stop... What other traditions do you have in store?
Student 1: We also wanted to hit cymbals like the Swedes.
Student 2: And set fire to the tar barrel, like the Scots...
Teacher: You know what, you don’t have to hit anything or set fire to anything. It seems to me that our traditions are the most humane traditions in the world! Let's decorate the Christmas tree, dance in a round dance, call the Snow Maiden and Santa Claus, and we'll go on vacation alive and well.
Student 3 explodes a firecracker. The teacher runs off the stage screaming.
Student 3: Hey! Well, this is our tradition!
Snow Maiden and Sultan - a fun scene for the New Year at school
Snow Maiden and Sultan.
(Dancers run up to the Sultan)
Dancer: Sultan, would you like me to do a belly dance, I’ve learned new movements!
It turned out just great, you've never seen anything like it before.
Sultan: No! Enough, I'm tired of it. Belly dance every day! In the morning belly dancing, in the evening - belly dancing, in the afternoon - belly dancing, I already have nightmares about belly dancing. Have you seen yourself at all? Is it really possible to dance a belly dance with such a figure - thin and bony, I'm tired of it! Vizier!
Vizier: Your Highness, don’t you like the way your dancer dances?
Sultan: It’s boring, something urgently needs to be changed... Maybe some songs, chanson, for example?
Vizier: Highness, maybe you should marry again? Replenish the harem, so to speak. There is a great girl, I just bought it at the market today.
Sultan: Perhaps, who is she, where is she from?
Vizier: He says that he is from Russia, from the North - he says that his name is Snegurochka.
Sultan: Let them bring...
(the guard brings the Snow Maiden)
Sultan: Wow, I like it
Snow Maiden: If I were you, Highness, I wouldn’t loosen my arms and roll my lips.
Sultan: Exactly, you need to get married, let them tell all the wives to prepare for a new wedding.
Vizier: I told you, your mood has lifted, your blush has appeared.
Sultan: It’s just frosty today... is our heating working at all?
Snow Maiden: (Claps her hands, waves her hands towards the vizier and the Sultan) I will arrange a heavenly life for you, I will freeze everyone, if you don’t let me go!
Sultan: You know, Vizier, I changed my mind about getting married, let’s put her in the Sultan’s cellar - let her work as a refrigerator there?
Vizier: S-s-s-agreed...
Snow Maiden: (Blows towards the Sultan) I’ll freeze it and turn it into an icicle.
Sultan: Guards!
Vizier: Guards!
Snow Maiden: Come on, stop! I'll freeze everyone, turn everyone into icicles!
There is a struggle going on.
The Sultan, the vizier and the guards groan from the beatings.
Sultan: Okay, okay. Tell me quickly what you need!
Snow Maiden: Sultan, my Grandfather Frost sent me to you with a task, he says, do you have a tiger cub living in your gardens and do you have a new airplane carpet?
Sultan: Yes, but why does he need it?
Snow Maiden: A tiger cub for the New Year celebration, so that he can spread happiness to everyone, and not just you, but we need a plane carpet - we are in a crisis, gasoline is expensive, and we need to fly home with the tiger cub.
Sultan: Take everything, just don’t fight anymore.
Snow Maiden: That’s good, but I’m sorry for the beatings, a girl should be able to stand up for herself.
(leaves)
Sultan: (sobs)
Vizier: (cringes, waves to the dancer)
(the dancer returns to the stage and consoles the Sultan)
Dancer1: Your Highness, aren’t you in pain? How about a belly dance?
I’ll make you happy right away, and don’t worry about the carpet - it’s old, you’d better weave it, but the tiger cub is young, feed it, give it vaccinations, you have a lot of them.
Sultan: Dance, like this, everyone says it’s good to be a Sultan, but the Sultan’s job is hard.
(Baba Yaga’s daughter comes on stage, screams, falls silent, starts crying again, falls silent, screams again)
— B.Ya. - Oh, oh daughter, what is it, who offended the little one, who should be turned into a rotten toadstool, who should be ground into tooth powder?
— D.B.Y. “They don’t take me to the School Christmas tree as the Snow Maiden; they say I’m ugly anyway.”
— B.Ya. “Aren’t you beautiful, look at yourself and stately, oh, and smart and intelligent.”
Wait, I know a hairdresser, Leshy. She says that every girl is beautiful, you just need to emphasize this beauty. He'll touch up your paint, scrape it off unnecessarily, and you'll be no worse off.
any other fool.
— D.B.Y. - Snow Maidens and not Fools. And I don't need your hairdressers. They wash your hair, cut your braids, braid them, what disgusting stuff, and they also have colognes, eau de toilette, but I’d rather drown myself in kerosene than go to a hairdresser like that.
— B.Ya. - Calm down, don’t drive the wave, Leshy knows his work, he only works with natural materials: resin and fir cones, a little spring water and you’re fine, just like a Figurine.
— D.B.Y. - Yes, not a Figurine, but a Snow_gu_ro_chka. And his granddaughter, Snegurochka, returned to Santa Claus. He sent her to the Sultan on a mission.
— B.Ya. - Well, you can dress up as the Snow Queen. If you want, I’ll conjure an outfit for you.
— D.B.Y. “You old man have gone completely off the rails.” You don’t worry about my health, look what you’re thinking, the outfit of a snow queen! That's so many kilograms of icicles and ice cubes! And a kokoshnik made from pieces of a broken mirror is a direct threat to the safety of life!
— B.Ya. - Oh, I didn’t think about it, I almost ruined it. But I have one more remedy.
— D.B.Y. - Which?
— B.Ya. -Are you my robber?
— D.B.Y. - Robber.
— B.Ya. - Bandit?
— D.B.Y. - Bandit.
— B.Ya. - So you will be a fairy and you can do a little magic. You will conjure them a gift. You know how everyone will love you.
— D.B.Y. - Hurray, hurray I’ll be a fairy! I’ll conjure a wart for each one, so they’ll know how to offend me. Mom, move your hands, wave your wand more actively, I need a fairy set: a leather jacket, curly wings, a magic wand and sneakers!
— B.Ya. - I’m casting a spell, daughter, I’m casting a spell.

Hey you two from under the bench

Cool New Year's sketch for 9th grade
The older students get, the more often they argue with teachers. So this New Year, high school students do not want to do homework during the New Year holidays and start an argument with their teachers. How it will all end is unknown. But it will definitely be funny!
Student 1:
Hello, why are you so sad?
Student 2:
How can you be happy?! It's New Year's holidays, and the teachers have given us so many tasks! So I’m sad, I won’t have a New Year, and no one will have one. All students will study and learn what is assigned to us. And then read, and decide, and...
Student 1 (interrupts him):
Stop, stop, stop! We need to think about this. Look, it’s the holidays for both us and the teachers? So? So! But we will study on our own during the holidays, and the teachers will rest. So? So!
Student 2:
I will even say more: they will not only relax, they will also drink...
Student 1 (interrupting him again):
Stop, don't continue. Empty it will be on their conscience. Listen further. And so, everyone is on vacation, but the students are studying at home, and the teachers are not. So, to keep everything fair, I propose to play a game with the teachers, and if they win, then we will learn everything. And if they lose, then (rubs hands), oh, let's play.
Students invite teachers onto the stage. 2-3 teachers will be enough. When they entered the stage, the game began.
Student 1:
And so, we will play by these rules.
Student 2:
The rules are simple - we ask a question, you discuss for 15 seconds and give an answer. If the answer is correct, then you have one point. If you are wrong, then we have one point.
Student 1:
Since we have a new year, the questions will be related specifically to the new year. Ready? Let's begin.
Questions to play with teachers.
- Why do Japanese people go to a Shinto shrine on New Year's Eve? (to drink juice)
- Name two cities in Russia where residents are the first and last to celebrate the New Year in our country (Vladivostok and Kaliningrad)
- We have Santa Claus, but what if there is Baba Zhara somewhere? (yes, there is, in Cambodia)
- Who do Sudanese people most want to meet on New Year's Eve? (crocodile, as this will bring success in the new year)
- Why did the great poet and writer Alexander Pushkin never celebrate the New Year with a decorated Christmas tree? (during the poet’s life in Russia it was not yet a tradition to decorate a Christmas tree in the house)
After the game, count the number of points for teachers and students. And then according to the situation. For example, if the students win, then you can say:
- of course, it was a joke game. We will still learn our lessons, but we will not forget to celebrate the New Year and have fun.
And if the teachers win, then we can say this:
- well, you have proven that it is necessary to study. And we will learn, but only in the new year!

Good afternoon
Happy New Year, friends! I congratulate you all today! It is impossible to be sad and sad today, I wish you all fun and joy! There is fun and laughter in this hall today. There will be various dances and competitions. Success and various surprises await everyone who is cheerful and courageous. Presenter (addresses the children)
: Guys, have you seen Santa Claus?
Children (in unison
): No!
Presenter (addressing adults)
: Have you seen Santa Claus? Guys, Santa Claus has a lot of work on New Year's Eve, and he cannot come to our holiday. But he sent us a telegram:
Leading:
Thanks to Grandfather Frost for such a beautiful congratulation!
Well, let's have fun and play without Santa Claus. We will send him photos from our holiday later! Do you agree? Children (in chorus)
: Yes!
Host:
I suggest playing the game “Say a word.”
Game “Say the Word”
It's snowing outside, the holiday is coming... (New Year) The needles glow softly, the coniferous spirit comes from... (Christmas tree) The branches rustle faintly, the beads are bright... (glitter) And the toys swing - flags, stars... (crackers) Threads of colorful tinsel, bells , ... (balloons) Whitebeard and Rednose under the branches ... (Santa Claus) Presenter:
Guys, have any of you heard about the famous “Animal Cycle” What is it?
The cycle is 12 years.
Each year is named after an animal in a specific order .
Host:
Do any of you know what year, according to this calendar, we will be celebrating in a few days? Answer: 2021 will be the year of the White Metal Rat
Leading:
Why were the years named after these particular animals, and why does the Year of the Ox begin after the Year of the Rat, and not the Year of the Dragon?
Children's answers Presenter:
My grandmother told me that once, a long time ago, someone suggested naming the years after twelve animals. Now no one can remember who this wise man was. However, there remains a legend among people that says that the animals themselves agreed to count the years and begin the cycle with the one who first sees the rising sun of the New Year. The camel, believing in the superiority of his height, was less worried than the others and therefore fell asleep just before dawn, and the little mouse, without thinking twice, climbed onto the top of his head and, of course, saw the birth of the New Year before anyone else. Therefore, they begin to count the years from the Year of the Mouse, but not a single year was named after the camel that slept through the sunrise.
Leading:
It’s unlikely, guys, that everything happened exactly like that, but, in any case, the “animal calendar” quickly spread among different peoples, albeit with some variations.
For example, the Year of the Snail is called the Year of the Dragon by the Chinese, Mongols and Japanese, and the Year of the Fish by the Turkmens and Uyghurs, and instead of the Cow and Chicken, the Bull and Rooster appeared. Presenter:
Which of you can now correctly name all the names of the years according to the eastern calendar will receive a sweet prize.
Answer: Rat, bull, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog and pig. Host:
Well, since you know the eastern animal calendar so well, I offer you the game “Zodiac Signs”
Game "Zodiac Signs"
Props: cards with animal horoscopes by year.
5-6 people take part in the game.
They all receive cards with a horoscope. The presenter names a certain year, and the players, watching on the card, depict this animal. The winner is the player who quickly orients himself and more accurately shows the image of the animal, its voice, and facial expressions. If there are many people who want to play, you can repeat the game with a second set of participants. Host:
Guys, while you were playing the game, I composed a telegram in response to Santa Claus. I just had one problem: I couldn’t find the adjectives. Help me please. Name any 16 adjectives.
The text of the resulting telegram is read out. It turns out to be a very funny text. Leading:
The lights on the tree are bright, the New Year is coming.
What gifts and gifts will Santa Claus bring us? (in a bag)
A magic staff and a bag of gifts are the most important attributes of Santa Claus.
Without them, he never appears at the holiday. I’ll tell you a secret that grandpa’s bag is not simple - it’s bottomless! In any case, Santa Claus never lets anyone near the bag, he only takes gifts out of it himself. He does this without looking, but he always guesses who is waiting for what gift. Host:
I suggest you play the game “Santa Claus’s Bag”
Game "Santa Claus' Bag"
Props: a small Santa Claus bag, cards with forfeits and an empty bail box. Everyone sits in a circle and places an empty bag in the center. Leading:
what
you have in it , ok, say a word and give the deposit.
Everyone takes turns naming words that end in -ok
.
For example, “I put a ball in the bag,”
etc.
Anyone who makes a mistake or can’t figure out what to say puts any deposit in the box - a scarf, pencil, hairpin, chip or other personal item, and temporarily does not take part in the game any further. When all the players make one mistake, the presenter says: “Whose deposit will I get, what should I do?”
first takes out the deposit, and then from the bag a card with the task.
After this, each participant “redeems” his pledge, cheerfully fulfilling what he got. If there are many children, then deposits can be combined in groups of 2-3. Words for reference: bull, felt boot, collar, son, smoke, pot, glove compartment, tank, east, castle, pupil, castle, hammer, scoop, spine, ham, ham, peephole, bell, sock, scarf, breeze, felt, boxes, bun, shoe, hair, voice, fork, cap, corner, whistle, comb, cockerel, puppy, kitten, duckling, chicken, pie, etc.
Examples of tasks for New Year's forfeits: • Depict a New Year's cracker with a pantomime • Depict a festive fireworks display with a pantomime • Depict a sparkler in pantomime that does not want to light up • Walk around the room as if through snowdrifts • Depict a skier dragging a Christmas tree from the forest • Depict a bunny jumping around a Christmas tree • Depict a melting Snow Woman • Depict a Hut on chicken legs • Depict the symbol of the passing year according to the eastern horoscope • Draw the symbol of the coming New Year according to the eastern horoscope • Depict a blinking garland with a dance pantomime • Depict a snowflake with a dance pantomime • Read any New Year's poem • Put a few candies behind your cheeks and sing “A Christmas tree was born in the forest” • Sing the song “A Christmas tree was born in the forest” ", as if you were very cold • sit down 5 times and each time, getting up, raise your hands, greeting everyone and wishing them a Happy New Year • Show in slow motion how a person makes a snowball and then throws it • With accelerated movements, depict how a person dresses up New Year's tree
and others... Host:
We had a lot of fun! This is how Santa Claus's bag came up with tasks for us! Guys, aren't you tired? Do you still want to play? (Yes!). I offer you the game “Two is better than one”

Student 1:
Hello. What are these funny shoes you have?
Student 2:

Student 1:
And where is the magic? I don't see him for some reason.
The music turns on and the student in felt boots begins to dance. After some time, two more students come on stage, and the three of them dance. Then they come out again and again and a real flash mob forms on stage!
Important!
As you may have guessed. The students from the audience are fake artists! They rehearse the dance in advance so that everything goes smoothly at the celebration.
After the dance (flash mob)
Student 1:
Yes, and felt boots are truly magical.
Student 2:
Yes, magical, magical. Let's just go quickly. Now my grandfather will wake up, but there are no felt boots. Now you will see real magic, how you can say one hundred and forty words in a minute!
The students leave the stage.
Song about the Christmas tree
1st child:
Silver, lights and sparkles - A whole world made of silver.
Presenter:
Birch trees are burning in pearls, black and bare yesterday.
2nd child:
This silvery winter has come, It has covered the clean field with white snow. During the day everyone skates with the children, At night it crumbles in snowy lights.
Presenter:
He writes patterns on the windows with a needle and knocks on our window with a fresh Christmas tree.
3rd:
Beautiful winter, with fringe on the patterns, made of transparent ice floes, stars, snowflakes, all covered in diamonds, pearls, multi-colored lights.
