Flags, music, food, laughter—and above all, community. That’s what filled our campus during this year’s International Day at The Metropolitan School of Panama.
With over 48 nationalities represented in our student and parent body, this event is a vibrant reflection of who we are: diverse, united, and proud of where we come from.

This year, more than 20 country booths brought culture to life with traditional food, games, facts, and decorations. Families came together to represent: Argentina, Belgium, Bolivia, Brazil, India, Colombia, Costa Rica, France, Guatemala, Israel, Honduras, South Korea, Lebanon, Mexico, and Panama.
The event also featured student and parent performances, showcasing music, dance, and traditions from around the world. And for the first time ever, we had our very own Comparsa Parade, proposed by Grade 11 student Catalina and brought to life by student creativity and collaboration. The winners? Our amazing Grade 8 students, who brought rhythm, energy, and spirit to the stage.

This unforgettable day wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our community. A huge thank you to our amazing Parent Council, whose leadership and dedication brought this event to life.
