Language and Culture Fair 2025

March 14th 2025

Bilingual pupils from Years 3 to 13 once again delighted us by hosting our third Language and Culture Fair during Thursday lunchtime in the Junior School Hall. Fittingly, the event took place on a day when the British weather showcased its own diversity—shifting from sunshine to rain, hailstones to a sudden chill—as if nature itself was celebrating with us!

This unique occasion fosters pupil collaboration, with students planning and organizing their displays, sharing fascinating details and artefacts about their languages, and highlighting the countries and communities where they are spoken. It was a wonderful opportunity to nurture existing friendships while also building new ones. The pupils were incredibly generous in sharing traditional clothing, precious objects, games, and activities with the wider school community.

It was heartening to see children of all ages working together, exchanging lively conversations in some 23 different languages, and participating in a range of cultural activities. Despite the unpredictable weather outside, inside Rose Hall, the atmosphere was vibrant and warm - a true reflection of the diversity and friendships within our school.

This established annual event has become a true celebration of the rich tapestry of cultures that make up our pupil body. The passion and pride these children feel for their heritage are profound, and it is a great privilege to join them in sharing and celebrating this remarkable diversity under one roof.
