Aspire International School was filled with colour, music, and excitement this past weekend as we celebrated Carnaval both at school and in the lively streets of Quarteira! 🇵🇹✨
On Friday, our primary students embraced the spirit of Carnaval in a fun-filled, educational celebration. Arriving at school in costumes inspired by ancient civilisations, they beautifully connected the festivities to their ongoing classroom projects. 🏛️⚔️📜
The students enjoyed:
🎭 A vibrant parade around the school showcasing their creative costumes
🎶 Dancing to festive Carnaval music
📖 An engaging presentation by Miss Rita on the history and customs of Carnaval, helping students understand the significance of this beloved Portuguese tradition
It was a day full of joy, creativity, and cultural appreciation, bringing history to life while celebrating a cherished part of Portugal’s heritage.

A special thank you to Associação Talentos Unidos for inviting us to be part of this unforgettable experience. Carnaval is not just about fun—it’s an opportunity to connect with the local community, celebrate Portuguese culture, and create lasting memories for our students.
🎭✨ What an amazing weekend of learning, laughter, and community spirit! We look forward to many more cultural celebrations in the future. 🇵🇹💃
