ISHCMC Food, Fun, and Festivities: A Recap of World Food Fest!

Last Saturday’s World Food Fest was a fantastic success! The event brought together students, parents, teachers, and staff to celebrate the incredibly diverse culture represented in our school community. At the food festival, parent country representatives ran food booths offering their own traditional dishes for everyone to try, and students showcased their respective countries with lively performances. The event was a melting pot of cultures, and it was a truly unforgettable experience for everyone who attended.
