To mark the exciting start to the Football World Cup we held our very own opening ceremony. Each of the classes were assigned a country and they each gave a performance to represent their designated country. This was interpreted in various ways through song, dance, poetry, artwork, sharing facts and more.

Today was a wonderful display of enthusiasm and creativity as each of the classes performed to the school.

There was even a surprise performance from the teachers who broke out into their own dance. The children were so surprised and excited especially by Miss Robinson's back flip.

We are so proud of the children and all of their hard work. It really was an incredible afternoon and a wonderful way to celebrate and learn about many countries in our world.
