Hey， Intercultural Day——又是一年國際日

又是一年國際日

Hey, Intercultural Day!

The Primary Years Program English Section of Chengdu Meishi International School have recently celebrated their annual Intercultural Day. The event took place last April 9, 2021 at PYP Building C. Once again it was a resounding success as our students with their parents shared and enjoyed the cultures and diversity of different countries.  With five nationalities represented, it was a marvelous example on how our school has embraced diversity.

成都美視國際學校PYP英文部最近慶祝了一年一度的國際日。該活動于2021年4月9日在PYPC樓舉行。我們的學生和他們的父母再次分享并成功見證了多元文化。五個年級代表五個不同的國家，這是我們的學校擁抱多樣性的又一絕佳證明。

Intercultural Day gave us the opportunity to learn more about other countries; cultures and traditions and to welcome parents into the school. This event served as a break from the usual classroom activities and has allowed the students to showcase their talents and creativity.

跨文化日使我們有機會更多地了解其他國家、文化和傳統，并歡迎家長來學校。這項活動打破了普通的課堂活動，讓學生們展示了自己的才華和創造力。

Preparations began weeks ago with each of the five grade levels started planning their performances and for their exhibits. Each grade levels were given a country that they will represent, and they were given the option of what they will be performing. 

幾周前，五個年級的學生開始為他們的表演和展覽做準備。每個年級都有一個代表的國家，他們有權選擇自己如何展示該國文化。
