In honor of Hispanic Heritage Day, students participated in a vibrant week of activities from 14th to 18th
October 2024 which aimed at exploring and celebrating the rich cultural heritage of Hispanic countries. The celebration was filled with engaging and educational experiences that fostered a deeper understanding of Spanish traditions.
The varied activities were done in the different classes including Spanish Tambola in which the students participated in this traditional game, which served as a fun way to learn and reinforce Spanish vocabulary. The game encouraged teamwork and friendly competition while highlighting language skills. Students were encouraged to bring interesting facts about various Hispanic countries and share engaging Spanish tongue twisters. This initiative allowed them to showcase their research and public speaking skills, while also contributing to lively class discussions. To enhance the festive atmosphere, students had the option to wear clothing in the colors of the Spanish flag—red and yellow. Many embraced this opportunity, donning T- shirts, caps, and accessories that celebrated their connection to Spanish culture. A quiz covering various aspects of Hispanic culture was conducted, focusing on the Seville Fair, the Day of the Dead, and traditional attire and food. This interactive quiz not only tested knowledge but also sparked discussions about the significance of these celebrations. The different classes explored the significance of this celebration, discussing traditional offerings (ofrendas), the use of vibrant colors, and the unique foods associated with honoring deceased loved ones.
The week culminated in a deeper appreciation for Hispanic heritage, fostering curiosity and respect for diverse cultures. The enthusiasm of the students was evident throughout the activities, making this celebration a memorable educational experience.
