Argyle Multicultural Mosaic





LEARNING about people and their families, cultures, backgrounds and lifestyles was all what it was about on Wednesday, May 30 as Argyle Secondary School in North Vancouver held its fourth annual "Multicultural Mosaic". It was an evening of ethnic food, entertainment, activities and fun. The student council should be congratulated for all their hard work as the gymnasium was filled with guests from all over. After dinner, the entertainment began and in the end, everyone left with a better understanding of just how lucky we are to live in such a diverse society.
