One of the  many joys of working in an International School is the many nations represented by the students and staff.

Each year we celebrate those nations on International Day.  At the morning assembly students carry in flags from the countries of their birth, their passport, or just the place they call “home”.

This year we had US, Canada, Cameroon, S. Korea, Central African Rep., Democratic Rep. of Congo, Netherlands, Switzerland, Belgium, Australia, Brazil, and I’m sure I’ve forgotten more. Students and staff give presentations of their country or region.
