With a strong community spirit and renewed hope in a brighter future, but under strict COVID-19 precautionary measures, Bahrain School celebrated Bahrain’s 49th National Day.
The school with its myriad of nationalities from across the globe has regularly celebrated the special day, hosting bands playing Bahraini music, performing traditional Ardha dances, sharing local food.
However, this year, the celebration was confined to the cafeteria where students sat for lunch on assigned seats six feet apart and were offered cupcakes decorated with Bahraini flags while patriotic and traditional songs augmented the festive mood.
“I am glad that despite the challenges imposed by COVID-19, we could celebrate Bahrain’s National Day and strengthen the spirit of community that has always prevailed in our school,” Principal Shana D. Seawright said.
