National Day: 25th May 2017
May 25 is Argentina’s National Day, also known as First Government Day. It celebrates the constitution of the first government that became independent from the colonial Spaniards after the May Revolution in 1810.
Bambinos St.Lukes Centre celebrated Argentina’s national day. Benicio (from toddler’s room) and his family shared a part of their culture with all of us.
Luciana and Ezequiel (Benicio’s parents) were wearing their traditional costumes. They also showed the flag from Argentina.
We were delighted listening to a song from the folklore of Argentina, and seeing Luciana playing a small musical instrument; The Ukulele.
It was a beautiful moment to see Kaiako, tamariki and Whanau engaged and enjoying through celebration. The tamariki showed a huge interest and determination to participate by singing, clapping and listening to the family.
We want to say thank you to Luciana and Ezequiel; for sharing their culture with our Bambinos Family. We are also greatful for their kind gesture of giving biscuits to all our children.
