John Cabot Academy celebrates its diverse culture

John Cabot Academy proudly celebrated diversity when it hosted A Day of Culture, a vibrant celebration highlighting the differing backgrounds of its student body.

Students were invited to attend the academy wearing traditional colourful attire representing their diverse heritage and cultural identities.

Throughout the day, the Bristol academy organised an array of engaging sessions and activities through a range of cultural activities. Talks were delivered by Integrate UK, there were fashion shows, and at lunchtime students could interact with stalls from organisations including Babbasa, and West of England Music and Arts Alliance, offering immersive experiences into different cultural aspects.

The festivities culminated in a spirited culture day quiz during tutor time, encouraging friendly competition and further exploration of the world’s diverse cultures.

Charlotte Grierson, Curriculum Leader for Performing Arts, said: ‘It was a vibrant day with students learning about different cultures, celebrating their own heritage, and embracing our wonderfully diverse community here at John Cabot Academy. A lovely day to be a part of.”
