The Surinamese embassy in Bras\u00edlia received a group of 52 primary school pupils on Friday, September 25. Through stories, visual materials and interactive activities, the children learned about Suriname\u2019s cultural diversity.<\/p>\n
During the visit, Surinamese traditions, dishes and folklore were discussed. Embassy staff also highlighted the message of unity by poet Dobru and swimming champion Anthony Nesty.<\/p>\n
Through a film, the pupils saw images of the celebration of Phagwa, Marron Day, Chinese Immigration, the Day of Indigenous Peoples and Eid al-Fitr. The pupils were accompanied during the visit by their school leaders.<\/p>\n
On behalf of the embassy, the programme was co-coordinated by first secretaries Ficenca Eliza and Jaya Faria-Jarvis. According to Ambassador Ike Antonius, the visit contributes to long-term contacts with educational institutions in Bras\u00edlia.<\/p>\n
Later this year, Suriname will be the focus of the annual country festival for lower-grade pupils at an educational institution in the Brazilian capital. Pupils will pay attention to Surinamese music, art and dishes, among other things.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
