Attend the Event
Attendees will receive a "suitcase" to collect all your treasures as you journey around the world—without ever leaving Meadowbrook School. Enjoy traditional games, create arts and crafts, and, of course, sample a variety of culinary delights from different cultures.

Have you and your family traveled to another country? What are some things that are the same and what are some things that are different?

What kind of food will be available at the event?
Food travels across cultures and that's how people connect. We hope our host countries will be offering an amazing selection of culinary treats. To ensure everyone has a safe and enjoyable experience, we will have signs for allergen warnings but make sure to talk to our host countries to learn more about their food offerings.
