Western Lakes State Ministry of Education and Primary Schools with support from UNICEF join the world in commemorating International children’s Day at Rumbek Girls Primary School on Thursday.
The day was celebrated under the theme: ”A day for Children, by children,” where kids take over. Good News Radio reports.
Here are the voices of the children expressing their gratitude to parents and teachers.
ACROSS Programs Manager, Andrew Marial urges parents to add more work on children’s Education because they are the leaders of tomorrow.
UNICEF Education Officer Ms Florance Okayo says the day is set aside for children to express themselves.
She says the celebration could have taken place on November 20, but it fails due to what he termed as ‘technical delay’.
Okayo says the day is special for children to share their hopes, dreams and determination to build a better future.
