Students and staff of Doha College enjoyed an enriching Qatar experience, complete with the diverse aspects of the Qatari culture and heritage, to commemorate Qatar National Day.
The day was the culmination of an ‘International Week’ marked at the college, and was dedicated to Qatari heritage.
The Doha College Primary choir had been invited to record the Qatar National Anthem at the Khalifa International Stadium for Aspire Zone as part of the nation-wide celebrations. The children are sure to remember this experience as one of their favourites in Qatar.
The school was transformed by the presence of a magnificent Majlis tent. Inside, there was traditional bread being baked for the visitors, while a henna artist skilfully embellished the hands of hundreds.
The students produced Arabic-inspired art, learned many new things about their host country and gained a greater appreciation of the Qatari heritage.
Dr Steffen Sommer, principal of Doha College, expressed his gratitude to the host country.
He said, “The students have done so well to bring Qatar into the college. I am proud to see how extensive their knowledge of Qatar is and how much they enjoy taking part in the Qatari traditions.”
