Our school celebrated German Unity Day in the first week of October with great enthusiasm. The event commemorated the reunification of Germany on October 3rd, 1990, and was marked by creative activities, presentations, and cultural highlights, making it both educational and enjoyable.
The celebration began with an introduction to the significance of the day, emphasizing the historical importance of Germany’s reunification and its global impact. Students across grades participated in a variety of hands-on activities, including bookmark, poster, and card making, all of which reflected German cultural symbols, landmarks, and history. Many designs incorporated the black, red, and gold colours of the German flag.
Students also watched a selection of German movies and songs, offering them a fun and immersive experience of the country’s language and culture. In addition, they prepared presentations on interesting facts about Germany, covering topics such as German inventions, cuisine, and famous landmarks like the Brandenburg Gate.

Overall, it was a day filled with learning, creativity, and cultural appreciation, leaving everyone with a deeper understanding of the importance of unity and diversity.
