Week 36 - Gumboot Dancers

One of the annual events on an international school calendar is UN Week.  In Jie Jie's class they have learned about all the countries represented by their classmates with the mums coming in with a sample of food and a story or activity for the kids to do.  These dancers from South Africa made a big impact with their boot stamping and leg slapping dance moves - Jie Jie has preferred to wear her gumboots all week!!  UN Week culminated in a national costume parade at Ducks and an enormous food fair in the Junior School courtyard, and the volume of food was amazing... meatballs from Denmark, hot dogs from the States, pavlova from Australia, sushi from Japan, and Irish Stew from ?
