Share Your Culture/Religion/Tradition: Record a Video of Your Child

We are looking for families in our community to share their holiday traditions. Prior to showing the holiday movies, we will present a short video compilation featuring our student community. Students will share why their cultural or religious holiday traditions are meaningful to them.

How does it work?

Use your phone to record a 30 second to 1 minute video of your child answering 1 or 2 of the following questions:

What holiday(s) do you celebrate at home?
What do the holidays mean to you?
What does your religion/culture mean to you?
What are some of your favourite traditions with your family around the holidays?
What is your favourite food around the holidays? And can you describe what it is made of/tastes like?

Upload the video here https://u.pcloud.com/#page=puplink&code=Od9kZyKVPLTdMwVfSqXwPSILTX70od8jy

Check out this sample student video for inspiration! Thank you for participating!
