On Friday, 14th October, BIS hosted an event dedicated to the UN Day, when students from High School and invited guests led activities for Primary and Middle School students to introduce them to the work of the UN, the Sustainable Development Goals and this year’s UN Day theme of “Building Back Together for Peace and Prosperity”. UN Day is celebrated every year to mark the anniversary of the creation of the United Nations and every year it’s an exciting day full of fun activities, celebrating diversity and culture, and learning about the different United Nations countries. One of the many highlights of this celebration included a parade of nations where students had a chance to demonstrate their different national costumes from around the world. 

UN Day is not only about celebrating diversity and culture, but it is also a reminder of the value of peace and the cooperative spirit among nations.
