Cultural Mufti Day

Kia Ora!

Last Thursday, 16 June, we had a cultural mufti day.  This means that students could pay $2 to dress up as whatever culture they would like, instead of wearing their uniform.

I chose to borrow an All Blacks Jersey from my host family's son and wore it for mufti day.  My coworkers told me I was an honorary Kiwi for the day! Most of my class chose to dress up and it was very interesting to see their culture.

At the end of the day, the whole school got together and did a cultural parade.  The classes took turns parading around the blacktop and showing off their outfits to the rest of the school.  Once the parade was done, the principal called up the students by the culture they were dressed up as.
