Culture Day occurred on April 10. Each grade went to various stations to learn and experience different cultures. In the west gym, students set up their own tables with colorful posters. Hanna Loal ’27 explains the spread of her table to theology teachers Mr. Kory Delkamiller and Mr. Mark Koesters. They handed out sambusa and fetira, traditional South Sudanese dishes. The table also had hand crafted pots and a mufraka, a stew mixer. Photo by Lucy Ambrose.

A panel of Marian alumnae explain their experience with culture and served as a panel for girls looking to ask questions and learn. The women come from all different backgrounds and shared their work, experiences and knowledge tied with their heritage. They also invited students to ask questions at the end of the session.

Ashley ’27 and Kaylene ’25 Bialas represent their Polish family heritage. They brought cherry kolaczkis to celebrate Polish food. Ashley Bialas wears a shirt saying “dzien dobry” or hello in Polish. Both sisters helped put together the poster full of photos and facts. Photo by Elizabeth Buescher.
