UAE NATIONAL DAY CELEBRATION AT SMM

On 26th November 2015, St. Mary’s Catholic High School, Muhaisnah came

alive with the celebration of the UAE’s 44th National Day. The spirit of

nationalism reigned high at the institution and the entire school community

gathered to pay tribute to the UAE in the most befitting manner. The school was

decorated appropriately with flags and various red, green, white and black

festoons.

The special event staged on this occasion did awaken patriotism in the

hearts of the young students and

promote appreciation for the

meteoric rise of the country from its

humble beginnings to its present

stature.

All the staff and students of

SMM sported the colours of the

UAE national flag - red, white, green

and black - while some were in the

country’s traditional costume . The

programme began with the

National Anthem and a recitation

from the Holy Quran. The students

recounted the glorious history of

the country and the contribution of

the founding father Shaikh Zayed

bin Sultan Al Nahyan and the other

legendary leaders of the country.

They performed a traditional dance

to uphold the culture of the

country. A

quiz session

about the

UAE was

also

conducted

and the students cheered as they answered the questions aplomb.

The EYFS students also

paraded the grounds,

waving the national flag

proudly to show their love

for the country. Everyone

felt proud to be a part of

this happening country as

they waved their UAE

flags all through the programme.

The entire day was filled with

activities that kept reminding the

students about the significance of

the day. /JCL
