P6 Visit Mid and East Antrim Council

28 Jan 2020
On Wednesday the 29th January, P6 had the opportunity to attend the Mid and East Antrim Schools Engagement event at the Braid Arts Centre in Ballymena. The Mayor was there and she told us a little bit about her job and the job of the council. However, the most exciting was when we got to watch and take part in activities which showcase the diversity we have in our local area. To celebrate Chinese New Year, a lady performed a traditional Chinese dance with a fan and then we had the chance to dance too! Afterwards, a man who originally comes from Zimbabwe played the drums which we also had a chance to do. We were very proud of Mrs McCutcheon when she got up and danced a tribal dance with a tribal mask as well! It was very interesting learning about the Council and about the importance of celebrating diversity.
