We are still beaming with pride after our wonderful children's celebration of Zambia's Independence Day at Eden Farm today.
While the official holiday is Friday, 24th October, our students couldn't wait to share their passion and knowledge of our great nation. The event was a huge success, showcasing the depth of their learning about our national identity.
The National Flag: Our classes explained the powerful symbolism of the flag's colors: Green for our agriculture and lush resources 🌿, Red for the struggle for freedom ❤️, Black for the Zambian people ⚫, and Orange for our mineral wealth 🟠. The African Fish Eagle 🦅, soaring above, symbolises our nation's hopeful rise.
The Coat of Arms: Students presented on the significance of the shield's design, from the Victoria Falls to the tools of labour (hoe and pickaxe), all united under the inspiring motto: "One Zambia, One Nation.
The National Anthem: Their heartfelt performance of "Stand and Sing of Zambia, Proud and Free" was truly moving, reminding us all of the sacrifices made for our freedom.
Thank you to all the parents and guests who came out to support our future leaders as they honoured the history and heritage of our nation's independence, achieved on October 24, 1964.
Happy Independence Week, Zambia! Let the spirit of unity continue.
