Our very last International Day

On the weekend it was time for the highlight of the school year in my book - Global Village, or International Day! Our very last International Day...
I admit, I was actually a bit emotional.
For one, it is an absolutely AMAZING event that I have always loved to be part of, and secondly, it's another chapter closed for good. No more International Day celebrations.

I was actually not part of the preparations this year, as some of the other parents took it upon themselves to organise, and change things up a bit! They decided to pair up with Denmark and Norway and created a Scandinavian corner with a whole Viking boat and everything! So awesome!

The set up was absolutely fabulous! The ladies were dressed up as Vikings, all the decorations had Viking themes and they had been baking lots of treats - which also had Viking names!

 

There was huge printouts with lots of cool information about the Vikings:

Susanne and Laura, two Danish Vikings, and Linda:

There was Viking face paint, and Viking games to play:

As per usual, here are some more snapshots of the day, of some of the rest of the participants of Global Village. It felt massive this year, I think it must have been a record number of countries participating. Everyone making such an effort too, it was absolutely beautiful!

Such a great morning! I am so extremely happy our kids have grown up to get to know so many different countries, cultures and traditions. This is by far the best part of their schooling, hands down.
