"We are birds of the same nest. Wearing different skins, speaking different languages, believing in different religions, and belonging to different cultures, we share the same home- the earth. Born on the same planet, covered by the same skies, gazing at the same stars, breathing the same air, we must learn to progress happily together."- Atharva Veda. Following the same principle, we, at Shemford Futuristic K12 School, Auraiya collaborated with H? Hòa High School, Phú Th? Province, Vietnam to bridge the cross-cultural gap. Dr Meenakshi Narula, Principal of the school, welcomed the students and their mentor Ms Ng?c Nguy?n and took them around the school's virtual tour. The session began with the rendition of the Gayatri Mantra and its English explanation. Later, the students exchanged greetings and highlighted their respective country's culture and traditions. Also, they presented PowerPoint Presentations, showcased dresses and food of their country, and enthralled the audience by their folk dances. The assembly concluded with the rendition of the National Anthems of both the countries. Looking forward to more such Cross-cultural sessions within and outside the country and to actually experience- "Vasudhaiv Kutumbikam"- the world is one family. The Chairman, Dr Anil Hada, applauded the Teams' efforts for putting up an impressive show by the students and wished them luck for the forthcoming events. #indiaandvietnam #bridgingcrossculturalgap #crossculture #shemauraiyans #shemfordauraiya #Auraiya #worldisonefamily
