Multicultural Celebration – A Collaborative Inquiry Project – Year 5 and 6 – 2018

In Week 8 we plan to hold a Multicultural Celebratory Event to celebrate the diversity of our community. The Year 5/6 students will lead our community event with the aim to involve as many people in our community as possible – adults and students in fun, active, informative, engaging cultural activities. (Dancing, food demonstrations, listening to story telling, puppet shows, sports/ games, music, demonstrations, etc.)

Your challenge is to research cultural practices/ traditions/ activities that could be part of our Multicultural event. You will then, in small groups, need to plan, design, and lead small groups of participants in your activity. How will you engage/ inform/ entertain your audience/ participants?

Aim to highlight/ enact our school values of: Community, Diversity, Opportunity and Creativity.
