Noah:
We had the day off school for Mexican Independence Day, and before that, learned about it at school. There was also a Noche Mexicana (Mexican Night) at school.

I learned that Mexico got independence from Spain after fighting the Spanish. That was on 16 September 1810.

People celebrate Mexican Independence Day by having parades and playing music.

Mexican Night (Noche Mexicana) at our school was fun. We played lots of Mexican games and we got Mexican food like tamales and Jamica.
