Every year, the school organizes an 'international day' of the students from around the world showcasing different things, talent, food and the culture of our homelands as we know it.
It is very heartwarming to have celebrated this year as a fund raising activity with proceeds donated to the victims of the devastating typhoon which claimed more than 5,000 lives and traumatized thousands of families.
The event had the usual booth display presenting different stories from the country participants. A food fair (with stamps at 5euros) opened to everyone not just from inside the campus but from all other visitors in town. The evening was capped by different cultural dances and songs performed by Indonesians; Latin Americans (Peru, Venezuela, Colombia and Brazil); Africans (Zimbabwe, Ghana, Ethiopia, Cape Town, Mozambique) and of course the Pinoys who while with lack of practice was still able to render a song (Paraiso) also to thank everyone who participated and was willing to offer this day's proceed to the Philippines...
It was truly a day of International Love =)
