On 29th November 2023, the students of Grades 5 K & 5L commemorated the 52nd UAE National Day with a lively assembly that showcased the nation's pride and unity. The audience was treated to traditional Emirati dances and songs that had them tapping their feet. Eloquent speeches by the students encouraged all to uphold the values that define this great nation - a commitment to excellence in education, appreciation of a rich cultural heritage, and dedication to unity and understanding. To honour the UAE, students and staff were dressed in the colours of the flag, a touching symbol of love and respect. The assembly allowed us to reflect on how far the UAE has come in just 52 years and inspired us to play our part in helping the nation continue to progress and prosper.
