World Cultural Diversity Day 2019

World Cultural Diversity Day 2019

This week, Gilberthorpe School celebrated World Cultural Diversity Day.  That means we shared and learned about the different cultures that make up our school.
In our school we brought food from different cultures to try, we had a sausage sizzle, some people performed items from their culture, we had a flag ceremony and parade and some people wore clothing or different items to represent their culture.

We had about twenty four flags hanging around our amphitheatre poles.  They looked beautiful especially when they were blowing in the gentle breeze.  Some people made flags and carried those.  

Some of our students sitting by our flags.

I will add more photos later.
