Some of my Laos Grade 10 girls performed a traditional dance as part of Friday's Pii Mai celebrations. They were gorgeous with flowers in their hair and richly coloured sinhs and scarfs. Am, Jane, Sassa and Angel were proud to share their culture with the VIS community.
A slightly jarring part of the celebrations was a fashion parade with student from the elementary school. Girls in pink with lipstick, prancing and preening- so much for trying to break gender stereotypes!
