About the Project

The International Cultural club will be initiated by the French students of Central Union High School in El Centro, CA. It is a small world after all when we get to know the cultures of other countries! Ongoing activities during the year include: speakers from different countries invited to speak about their country; cooking classes of ethnic dishes; basic language sessions for different languages, French, Japanese, Spanish, Tamil, Mandarin, Korean etc. by native or advance level presenters; international film screening; an international picnic for the community, students, parents, families and friends; practice sessions for cultural activities highlighted during the soirée; visits to special cultural events in the community; voluntary help and donations offered to those in need of help in the community; a trip in summer after school to a country of interest for those who are interested; a world pageant show with participants speaking different languages; international cultural programs; international decor with flags and posters; a variety of international cuisine, lively international music, and colorful lights.
