UMMER 2010
Over 1,000 people showed up to IC’s
Ras Beirut campus to celebrate the
5th International Day held at IC on
April 24.
Dressed in the country’s local cos-
tumes, students from elementary
and middle school from both cam-
puses put on dazzling performances
representing the countries of: Chili,
Holland, Thailand, Australia, Greece,
England, Mauritania, and Morocco.
Over 560 students participated in the
event as did their teachers and fami-
lies. Students have been extensively
researching their assigned countries
since November with the help of
their teachers and a group of parents.
Their research included the local cus-
toms, food, history, geography, music
and dances of the countries.
Following the performances held at
the IC greenfield, guests were treat-
ed to spectacular displays along the
campus which included a variety of
delectable dishes, items and research-
es representing the eight nations.
