Learners and staff dressed up in the traditional ceremonial attire of the various cultures.
The learners then staged a show, showcasing poetry, cultural dances, drama and musical items for their guests.
“The experience was great for our learners, because it create a chance where they could learn more about their cultures,”says deputy principal Nicolas Ndlela.
“Although we normally have this celebration with the learners, this year we decided to include our community members, just to share in the spirit of togetherness and ubuntu with them.
“Through this we are happy, because our learners learnt a lot, because it’s not every day that they are able to see people wearing different cultural attire, participating in cultural dances, or even listening to cultural music.”
Ndlela encouraged parents to make sure that they teach their children who they are and where they come from, so that South African children will always have an identity.
