Press Review: SISQ marks Qatar National Day

Swiss International School Qatar (SISQ) recently celebrated Qatar National Day with an event featuring various activities whilst highlighting culture, traditions and ‘Made in Qatar’ products.

The fun-filled activities and enthusiasm of the gathering showed no signs of the fact that the school was founded only two years ago in Qatar. The highlight of the event was ‘Made in Qatar @ SISQ Exhibition’ that featured different Qatar-based companies exhibiting their homemade products.

The school conducted an assembly in the main hall which was attended by the students of SISQ along with their parents and faculty members, all dressed in Qatari wardrobes. The assembly featured different dance performances and short plays. A traditional Qatari tent ‘Majlis’ was also set up at the corner of the hall. The falcons were also arranged for the students.
