"Exploring Cultural Diversity" workshops in local primary schools.
Council's "Exploring Cultural Diversity" workshops are held annually in local primary schools, providing an opportunity for pupils to meet people from other countries, find out about other cultures and have the opportunity to ask questions in a safe environment. These workshops raise awareness of other cultures and traditions that add to the richness and diversity of Northern Ireland.
Participating schools enjoy a 4-week programme where someone from a different country/ culture, now living locally, will visit the school each week for a session lasting about one hour. Each session provides a presentation by the facilitator, time for questions and answers, and an interactive activity to experience something about the culture of that person.
14 schools are participating this year, with a total of 56 workshops. 8 of these will take place during GR week 2025.
