Dear parents,
It has become a tradition to celebrate the United Nations Day at our school. In the true international spirit of the Discovery school, we would like to invite you all to participate in this grand cultural celebration on October 23, 2008 starting at 9:00 to 13:00. We hope that all nationalities represented in our diverse community will be able to display a table for the students to learn about cultural and historical aspects of their countries through various maps, books, souvenirs, games, fact sheets, samples of traditional food or anything else that would mark our visit to this country. As a part of the celebration, we would like to invite performers to represent various countries, so if you know of anyone who can offer our audience some traditional dances or songs, please send us their contact information. Please let us know if you are interested to help us celebrate the UN Day and educate our students about your country by setting up a table and we will send you more detailed information and put people from the same countries together so that you can combine your efforts. Please send us your contact information at yulialuk@yahoo.com (Yulia) or malaika1999@yahoo.com (Marcela) or contact us at 99678305 (Yulia) or 99075216 (Marcela) by October 14 to give us enough time to prepare for this important event for our school.


We are very grateful for your participation in this event,


UN Day Committee
