The atmosphere buzzed with excitement as Year 12 students and Secondary staff, adorned in cultural and Eid attire, gathered to share traditional foods and experiences. The event served as a delightful culinary journey, showcasing the rich tapestry of culinary heritage within our school community.
Led by the College Captains team – Mohammad, Abdullah, Areeba, and Mariam – the event began with Mohammad’s insightful reflection on the significance of cultural appreciation in fostering inclusivity. An engaging quiz followed, offering participants a fun-filled opportunity to test their knowledge of different cultures.
Amidst the festivities, the event provided a warm and welcoming environment. Conversations flowed freely, fostering connections between staff and students as they shared stories and experiences. It was a cherished opportunity for cultural exchange and mutual learning.
In essence, the Cultural Hi-Tea and Eid event represented the values of unity, respect, and appreciation at Al Siraat. It not only celebrated diversity but also strengthened the bonds of the community, leaving a lasting impression on all who attended.
