Global Culture Fair 2024!
A HUGE thank you to all of BG’s hard-working 2u students, who spent all morning preparing for this year’s incredible Global Culture Fair! Today the rest of BG’s students and all the teachers were treated to a true international celebration.!
As is tradition, BG’s 2u students created a fashion show based on all the different nationalities in BG’s IB cohort. A representative from each country took the stage and dazzled in their respective national dress. Thus, we were presented with numerous examples of traditional dress from all over the globe such as beautiful sari’s, cool cowboy hats and an intricate Korean Hanbok. The students who dared take to the runway were met with overwhelming applause and some even showed off a few traditional dance moves to music from their country.
After the fashion show, students from 1.g, pre-IB and 1.HF were invited to join the 2u students in Samlingssalen, where they were met with rows upon rows of various stands created by 2u students from all over the world. Each stand representing a country was decorated with flags and filled with various treats and artefacts.
A perfect opportunity for BG’s 1st year cohorts to engage with a different nationality and culture – whilst enjoying a taste of local cuisine from another country. This year’s culture fair was once again an instant success and a true reminder of the importance of intercultural understanding.
