Why it matters

Ambassadors of Understanding

Learning about different cultures brings joy and a real sense of connection to the wider world. Our youngest children especially love dressing up and taking part.

We hope every child leaves MIS with respect for other cultures and the confidence to share their own, inside school and beyond it.
