Once again, the American School celebrated Mexican Independence Day with a wonderful program full of music, dance and colorful costumes. The children participated with enthusiasm as a group of folkloric dancers, made up of teachers, opened the program with a traditional dance called ¨La Sandunga¨.

Pre First children danced to traditional Mexican childrens´songs and Second Grade children delighted the parents with their performance of a dance from Oaxaca called ¨La Flor de Piña¨.

Applauses went to the Sixth graders who participated in the reenactment of the historical Grito, Cry for Independence, the ringing of the bell and the flag waving as they shouted ¨Viva Mexico!¨.

Lots of fun was had by everyone and even more learning Mexican culture and traditions.
