worldcultureday-ps231

This week Oakland Gardens’ PS 213 held its annual International Fair, in which students celebrated all the different cultures represented in the school. The Times Ledger attended and took some wonderful pictures of the six different dance performances, which included Korean circle dancing, Latin American bullfighting dancing and Israeli line dancing. The school has hosted the two-day event for seven years now — on the first day the focus is on learning about different societies around the world and the second day is dedicated to the dance performances. Students began preparing for the dances way back in October, and parents volunteered for hundreds of hours to organize, decorate, and provide all the costumes.
