In celebration of Commonwealth Cultural Day, Mount Carmel School reinstated its Cultural Day Celebration last Friday, Oct. 8, 2021. Students from all grade levels performed a cultural and modern dance, designed a banner, decorated a booth providing information about their assigned culture, and wore costumes based on the cultures they represented. Parents and families were invited to watch their students perform. The cultures represented this year include Australia, the Caroline Islands, China, the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas Islands, Hawaii, India, Jamaica, Japan, South Korea, Mexico, New Zealand, the Philippines, Russia, and Thailand.
