Many children of Amrop company´s employees were born in recent years so Saint Nicolas decided to visit the address Štefanovičova 12. It has been such a long time he did not visit our company that's why we invited him to celebrate his name day with us. Saint Nicolas came up with a beautiful angel after the third calling up of almost twenty children. He was asking children a few questions and with his eloquence he achieved that some of the little daredevils sang, recited poems and told a few other words or a jokes. Although Nicolas was the honored person he had prepared a sweet package for everyone. Along with the angel he left for additional responsibilities and children with their parents and relatives were watching an animated fairy tale and enjoying the tasty food.
