Garangao Celebrations

On April 13, 2023, Pearl School West Bay Campus organized Garangao event with an aim to strengthen Qatar’s sense of national identity and the value of local culture and heritage. To commemorate the joyful celebration of Garangao, the school was exquisitely decorated for the events. The students of grade 1 and 2 enthusiastically participated in the Garangao festival. Children dressed in traditional clothing, with the boys wearing the traditional clothing of “Thob”, jackets, and caps, and the girls wearing traditional gowns with embroidery and golden jewellery. Various activities were part of the event. At the constructed traditional majilis area, several events, including swift photography, fun and enjoyable crafting, and distribution of goody bags for the children, were held throughout the day.

Teachers discussed the significance of the celebration and showed students festival-related films. It is sure to say that the event was enjoyed by all the teachers and students who participated. This lovely month’s soul and spirit were enhanced and treasured.

I appreciate the hard work of the students, faculty, and parents, who helped spread the joy.
