The school's central courtyard transformed into a festive Christmas market, featuring dozens of unique stalls that showcased international cuisine, exquisite handicrafts, and engaging interactive games.

The charity sale was the heartwarming centerpiece of the bazaar. In an effort to donate supplies to a primary school in China's Yunnan province, students spent two weeks collecting and organizing an array of books, clothing, and other items to sell.
