It is sung by the cuckoo instead of Jesus. This even did not go undetected with the German news portal focus.de, which refers in his report to a TV message from RAI. The episode occurred in a primary school in the municipality of Agna, where fundamental changes were made to a song lyrics for the annual Christmas party. Instead of “Jesus is born soon”, the children had to sing “Cuckoo is made from above”. And furthermore, the place "Where the angels prepare Jesus' birth" was exchanged with "All together prepare a feast in the blue sky".
With these changes, the school wanted to take the information about the feelings of non-Christian children and parents. But this is how the educational institution has come into being a good portion of anger in some parents. According to the director's attempts to explain, it was a misunderstanding, because the amended draft text had not yet been final. In the meantime, however, the children had already memorized the text.
Prior to this, the party of Italy's Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni had already introduced a bill to parliament to put a bill under protection at Christmas at schools and universities, writes focus.de in his report. The right-wing party Fratelli d'Italia (Brothers of Italy) wants to prevent Christmas celebrations from being renamed Winter Festival.
