The booths represented and highlighted cultures from around the world, including Mexico, the Netherlands, Métis, Ireland, Hungary, and many more. Each station was a unique window into the traditions, histories, and identities of the students and their families. From traditional dress and flags to homemade artifacts and stories, the displays offered an engaging and educational experience for everyone who attended.
"We wanted to make sure we recognized all the different cultures that we have at our school," said Brent Christensen, Principal 
Throughout the afternoon, students from across the school had the opportunity to visit the booths, ask questions, and learn more about the backgrounds of their peers. For many students, the opportunity to present their culture was both meaningful and exciting.
"I wanted to present my Mexican culture because Mexico has so many important and great things about it," said Grade 7 student, Rosy Garcia. "I was excited to share that with all my friends here at school because it's important for people to know about our culture and for us to learn about where other people come from."
Looking ahead, Mr. Christensen hopes this is only the beginning.
"Moving forward, we want the momentum to grow and have culture evenings with more families able to attend, as well as other members of the Coaldale community. It's a special event that helps shows our students that there are more similarities than there are differences among us."
Culture Day at St. Joseph School was more than just a celebration—it was a powerful reminder of the strength and beauty found in diversity. Through events like these, the school continues to foster a sense of belonging, pride, and unity among its students and families.
