The paper presents school rituals and their possible use at primary school. Its aim is to show the options of use of rituals in teaching. The authors first define the rituals in general and then characterize the school rituals. Based on a survey they show how the rituals are being used in a school environment. First, they divide the rituals into welcoming, valedictory, educational and celebratory. At the end, they document the main advantages that the respondents see in the use of rituals in their practice. The study results show that nowadays the rituals are an integral part of education at primary school and point to positives, which brings the use of rituals.
