Celebrating through virtual exchange
The closure of schools and transition to online learning has not deterred students at the Academy from celebrating their culture. Instead of only dedicating a day towards the commemoration of the historic day, students and teachers have been participating in a number of activities throughout the month of May in order to salute the rich and diverse culture of Mozambique and its fellow African countries.
Connecting from their homes across the continent, students have participated in sessions where they recited poems in unison, created beautiful artwork, danced to African tunes and raised issues about the importance of unity in diversity. By connecting students online across borders, this virtual exchange creates a third space of international education and complements the vision of the curriculum in championing locally rooted but internationally minded students.
