Classes I & II

Our world is an amazing place! We have people from

different countries, cultures, traditions and beliefs

living together like a big family. To foster life-long

friendships and healthy relations with each other in

this big family we need to understand and respect

not just our culture but culture of others.

you an opportunity to hop on a journey to explore and

enjoy delicious food cuisines, traditional costumes,

festivals and celebrations and also learn about

interesting facts about India, France and Japan.

boys and girls

Of many sizes

and colours, too

The things we like

and the things we do

We’re sure glad

it works this way

The world is so colourful

every day

If everyone

you wouldn’t be you

and I wouldn’t be me!
