On the occasion of the National Day of the Kingdom of Bahrain, the students of St Christopher's School gave a festive performance in the presence of honoured dignitaries, guests, parents and students.
The celebration included presentations on elements of Bahrain's national heritage including pearl diving, a Holy Quran reading (katateeb), folk games, traditional dances and a traditional sword dance (Ardha).
Senior School students engaged in learning about aspects of Bahraini culture, were led in a traditional Bahraini dance, tried Arabic calligraphy and enjoyed some traditional coffee and dates.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the parents and families who supported this magnificent event at both campuses, the teachers who organised the show and the souqs and all the participating students.
Wishing the leadership and people of Bahrain a very Happy National Bahrain Day.
