DOHA: Over 3,000 students from dozens of schools have participated at the Asian School Fiesta 2018, which was launched last month by the Friends Cultural Center (FFC), a Qatar Charity’s (QC) community development center.
The competitions, held at Al Ahli Sports Club as part of the fiesta, which has ended recently, have witnessed active participations in its various fields.
Students from more than 20 Asian schools in Qatar have taken part in FCC’s fiesta 2018, who belong to Indian, Pakistani, Nepali, Bangladeshi, Filipino, Indonesian and Sri Lankan communities living in the country. The competitions included singing poems, writing stories, reading news, performing plays, giving a speech, painting, drawing, handicrafts, clay crafts and others.
FCC has organized these competitions with the aim to provide the participants with information on QC and FCC activities, strengthen their links with both: the charity and the center, develop the skills and talents of the children, and establish a good relationship between the members of the communities.
The competitions also aimed at making the participants familiar with the Qatari culture and increasing the number of volunteers seeking to get involved in FCC’s various activities.
