International
Day
The popularity of this year’s International
Day soared beyond anyone’s expectations
as over 1500 people came on campus in
March to watch elementary and middle
school students from Ain Aar and Ras
Beirut put on impressive performances
representing the countries of Argentina,
Syria, Zimbabwe, Romania, Bahamas, Bo-
livia, Nepal and Sweden.The students, all
from Grade 3/CE2 and Grade 6/sixième,
have been studying ‘their’ countries and
thanks to teachers and parents (and physi-
cal plant personnel who set up a 21m x12
stage!) – the event was a hit. Following the
performances held at the IC football field,
guests were treated to spectacular displays
along the campus which included a variety
of the countries’ local delectable dishes.
