Hey， Intercultural Day——又是一年国际日

又是一年国际日

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.

成都美视学校PYP英文部最近庆祝了一年一度的国际日。该活动于2021年4月9日在PYPC楼举行。我们的学生和他们的父母再次分享并成功见证了多元文化。五个年级代表五个不同的国家，这是我们的学校拥抱多样性的又一绝佳证明。

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.

跨文化日使我们有机会更多地了解其他国家、文化和传统，并欢迎家长来学校。这项活动打破了普通的课堂活动，让学生们展示了自己的才华和创造力。

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. 

几周前，五个年级的学生开始为他们的表演和展览做准备。每个年级都有一个代表的国家，他们有权选择自己如何展示该国文化。
