UN Day takes place every year at the Lycée Français. During this special day, our students celebrate the diverse community of our school and learn the values of respect and sharing. All children from Cycle 2 and 3 in the Primary School took part in UN Day, the older children sang in the auditorium while the younger stayed in their classrooms dressed up in costumes from their countries of origin.
They sang about respect, friendship and the environment with the help and hard work of music teacher Sébastien Tomasini. To see more pictures and videos of performances by each class in the auditorium, visit the Primary blog (login required).
