It felt good, I felt happy. I felt happy because I got to share my culture with other people.

It made me happy because I’m Ethiopian, and my culture is fun.

It was also good that Mum came to watch us share our culture.

On Monday, we had Africa and I’m from South Africa. I did a presentation where I talked about the miners and the flag of South Africa. The food was really good. I brought bull tongue. I felt a bit embarrassed because I had to stand up in front of the whole school but I’m proud of my country.

For Africa day, we played gena which is kind of like hockey and we did a slide show teaching everyone about Ethiopia. I wore traditional clothes and so did my family. My brother was there too. I was worried people would think the food was too spicy and they wouldn’t like it but actually a lot of people wanted more.

I made a slide show about Ethiopia. I talked about its games, languages, the alphabet and the flag. Also we told the school some facts about Ethiopia like its capital city and how old it is. Our families came in wearing traditional clothes and brought traditional food like doro wat and chiko. It felt good teaching everyone about my country because it makes them know me more and where I come from.
