Hunt+Cultural+Assembly

Hunt middle school aka HMS is having a huge celebration of it’s 42 different countries that students are from in the school.

Hunt had a assembly Tuesday February 4th to recognize all the countries.

The assembly started off with 42 students from their country holding up their flag and walking in a line down the auditorium. Each student walked up on the stage, once every student with a flag was on the stage they would step out and say there countries name.

This really was an important assembly for hunt because it showed all the kids in the school how lucky we are as a school to have so many people representing a country.

After the flag ceremony some of the students from different countries performed meaningful dances or songs that was represented in their country.

The main act was yet to come. African drummers and a former hunt student whose dad was one of the drummers performed music and beats with the drums.

All the drums made different sounds and beat which made the performance even better.

Some of the drummers would get up and dance to the beats. The dancing motions were so fast and energetic with lot’s of jumping. At one point in their performances one of the jumpers leaped over the other one and then did a cart wheel when he hit the ground.

The drummers also had two girl dancers that were taught by the drummers. The girls dances to many songs while they played the drums and one sung a song.

Through the whole performance you really could get an idea of how countries are different than the United states which was really nice to see.

Also the performer in the drumming from Hunt was very fun to watch. He really could beat those drums really fast and it was cool to see because as a person at hunt I never knew he had such a talent ability in drumming.

Overall it was nice to see how many people we have from different countries and how lucky we are compared to the other schools that don’t have as many people from other countries like we do.
