Are you ready to immerse yourself in a week-long celebration of culture? Get excited because the first HCOS Student Council Cultural Celebration Week is just around the corner, running from May 13th to May 20th! This event aims to bring together students, families, and educators to appreciate the diversity that exists within the HCOS community.
To participate in this week of cultural celebration, all you need to do is submit a video sharing an aspect of your own culture that holds significance to you. Whether it’s a traditional dance, a delicious recipe, a captivating story, or a heartfelt song, this is your chance to showcase what makes your culture special to you.
But that’s not all! In addition to sharing your own cultural heritage, you can also participate in this event by respectfully trying out traditions, dances, songs, or dishes from cultures different from your own.
This is an incredible opportunity to explore and appreciate the rich tapestry of customs and practices that make up our diverse world.
Cultural Celebration Week is a time for collective learning and growth. By engaging with different cultural practices, we not only expand our horizons but also develop a deeper understanding and appreciation for one another.
So, get ready to embrace this week-long celebration and step out of your comfort zone. Take the time to learn about cultures different from your own, share your own cultural pride, and celebrate the power of diversity. Let us come together as one HCOS family and make this the most memorable Cultural Celebration Week ever!
Get your cameras rolling, gather your recipes, polish your dance moves, and tune your voices. Let’s make this a week to remember!
