During last years, school had several indoor and outdoor events.

 

Indoor events:

 

  • Norooz  (Iranian new year in March every year)
  • Yalda (longest night celebration in December every year)

 

Outdoor events:

  • Picnic & BBQ at Horton park
  • Chessington world of Adventures
  • Different events organised by Local Authorities ( Sutton Festival of the word – Take Part, Take Pride events)

 

Many students and their families attended these thoroughly enjoyable events. These events particularly the indoor events, introduce Iranian culture to young people who have little information about their parent’s homeland and they can view posters, films and Iranian art and Crafts. These young people also have a chance to experience atmosphere and enjoy Iranian live music.

 

Every year about 200 people participate in these traditional celebrations. Children perform with confidence and ability by joining in dancing, singing and competing with others. The parents also perform beautifully by preparing Iranian traditional food and customs.   

 

In outdoor events, children and parents having fun participating in a very pleasant and relaxing day out at Chessington World of Adventure or BBQ at Horton Park.
