Students created displays from countries around the world that explained their cultures, food, clothing styles, historical significance, geography and many other items of interest.
From the far north of Iceland to countries of India, Morocco, Scotland and more, some of the displays also included food samples native to each.
The event is also a lesson in geography and history, as students wrote personal, or researched, historical pieces.
This year’s exhibition hours were also extended to give community members the opportunity to attend.
It was a day filled with opportunities to learn about the homelands of many of the students who attend SDSS, or their family histories, while also a chance to explore the many countries that make up the planet.
