Grand Ridge Cultural Club

Grand Ridge Cultural Club is an optional recess program that brings in parent volunteers to share

their cultural heritage and customs with hands-on activities, games and crafts from a specific

country or culture

This year students will have the opportunity to "visit" another country and do a short activity related to the country/culture during recess during our rainier months! This is a fun way for kids to get to

know different areas of the world

In order to start Cultural Club again, we are looking for country "hosts" to sign-up to lead on a Thursday for three 20-minute recess sessions (11:35 am - 12:45 pm).

Additionally, we also need volunteers to help the country hosts with the activities and make sure that more kids can participate. All you need to do is show up! 

Hosts will be reimbursed for the materials purchased for the chosen activity. More information will be provided by the Cultural Club chairs. 

Learn more and Sign-up now to host your own country and celebrate your culture.

Contact co-chair Su Park (suhalee81@gmail.com) and Andreia Regateiro (anrafa@gmail.com) if you have any questions.
