Chile Independence Day

“The Fiestas Patrias of Chile consist of two days:

-September 18, in commemoration of the proclamation of the first Governing Body of 1810, and making the beginning of Chilean Independence process.

– September 19, known as the Day of the Glories of the Army”

 

These days all the Chilean families around the country are celebrate by dancing our traditional dance “La Cueca” and eating the most popular food “Empanada”

Today, we celebrated the Chilean Independence Day at Bambinos. It was a wonderful morning to see all Kaiako and some parents decorating in blue, white and red colours. Everybody was enthusiastic, towards making this day special and meaningful to our tamariki (children).  All Kaiako and some babies of pepi room were dressed up with the costumes. The traditional music of Chile was being played during this celebration. The toddlers and pre-schoolers also had an opportunity to dress up with the traditional costumes of Chile. Maria, one of our Chilean teachers showed all tamariki’s the traditional dance “La Cueca”. She also taught a song in Spanish.

The tamariki from preschool room showed a huge interest in participating in the handkerchief dance.Ka pai Tamariki!!

These experiences offer  our tamariki to learn about different cultures and their value.

Bambinos promotes the respect of different cultures by celebrating all the festivals through the year.
