Yesterday, grade 2 students took part in a Cultural Day exploring the rich traditions and culture of the Paiwan tribe, one of Taiwan’s 16 recognized indigenous groups. Students engaged in activities featuring storytelling, clothing, music and dance, traditional games, food, and crafts, gaining a deeper understanding of the Paiwan community and the concept of culture and how it is expressed and preserved. Events like this are a reminder of the importance of respecting and learning from diverse communities and how doing so fosters curiosity, empathy, and understanding. Thank you to everyone who made this meaningful event possible! #CulturalDay #PaiwanCulture #GlobalCitizens #KASDragons
