Today we had the yearly ‘Multicultural Day’ at school. We had school until 11 a.m, but we didn’t really have school, in French we made cr\u00eapes for the French stall and helped to move out all the desks from the classrooms as we’re getting new ones next term. Then we had free time until 2.15 p.m. There were heaps of food stalls with food from different countries (Brazil, Germany, Serbia, India, Australia, the Netherlands and England). The food was very nice! Brazil gave away free bracelets, earrings and little chocolate things (the bracelets are luck bracelets which they tied 3 knots in = 3 wishes which are supposed to become true when they bracelets fall off, but that can take up to 1 year..), some of the Germans offered really nice grape-cheese sticks, vanilla cream and potatoes with sour cream, India had rice with a yummie meat sauce with special bread (which I had for lunch), Australia offered sausages, meat, slushies, crocodile, kangaroo and emu meat, the Netherlands had made little Dutch pancakes and England served scones with strawberries, jam and whipped cream. Oh yeah, I totally forgot that there also was French, Japanese and South African food.. So you see, there was a lot of food, and therefore I ate a little too much.. They also had some games going on, e.g. ‘World Soccer Cup in Cleveland’ or ‘Tour de Cleveland’. They also had stalls where you could get your hands or faces painted, your nails done or your hair coloured. There were two different bands who played during the whole day, they were really good! Some of the students had dressed up in national costumes and the best ones won a price. And, what I really enjoyed, was a Maori show performed by a few students from somewhere (I can’t remember the name), they were great! I recorded it, but somehow can’t upload it on to my blog..<\/p>\n

By the way, we didn’t go camping this weekend anyway as the weather isn’t very good.. I think we’re going on Friday 22nd October instead and staying until the following Sunday, as it is my birthday on that day and I would like to do something with a few friends in the evening. No idea what yet though!<\/p>\n

I’m sorry I didn’t take so many photos, but I was too busy..<\/p>\n
