On Wednesday 30th April, our school came alive with colour, culture, and community as we celebrated Culture Day — a joyful showcase of the traditions, identities, and stories that make our school so special. From African drumming, Scottish dancing, and Henna art to exploring Gloucestershire’s farming and rugby heritage, the day was packed with vibrant activities! 🥁💃🏽🌾 Students wore traditional dress, cultural clothing, and sports kits reflecting their heritage. In Food, students cooked dishes like samosas 🍽️, while our canteen offered a delicious themed menu. The library and even Train Club joined in the fun too — with global stories and cultural journeys by rail! 📚🚆 At the heart of the day were our core values: 💫 Integrity, Kindness, Pride, Respect, and Responsibility Culture Day wasn’t just a celebration — it was a powerful reminder of the importance of belonging, understanding, and celebrating each other. #CryptCultureDay #DiversityMatters #ProudToBeTheCrypt #FlourishTogether (fb)
