PTS International Festival_Group PhotoMIAMI — April 17, 2017 — Palmer Trinity School (PTS) recently hosted its 17th annual International Festival at its campus in Palmetto Bay. The festival celebrates the school’s vibrant multicultural community and highlights its ongoing commitment to global sustainability and environmental initiatives.

This year PTS presented a wide variety of entertainers from colorful dancers to aikido martial artists to its very own student musicians, dancers, and actors. The highlight of the festival is the assortment of food booths representing countries from every corner of the world with signature dishes.

Community organizations were also present to sign up students for a variety of service opportunities, while shoppers browsed for clothing and accessories.

In addition to the festival, PTS held its 5th annual Indoor World Cup soccer game in the school’s gymnasium with teams representing different countries playing for the World Cup title.

PTS’s middle and upper school students led the main event, the International Flag Parade, which traversed through booths and displayed flags from more than 50 countries, ending up on the main stage for display.

All money raised will go to support Palmer Trinity School’s global education initiatives.
