Teachers March

Mr. Milimo (head teacher) marching with Chipulukusu teachers in Teacher's Day parade
 

Zambia highlights the importance of school teachers in a big way every year.  Schools are closed all over the country with parades and events in honor of teachers in each town.  The teachers at Chipulukusu and Kasompe requested a small stipend earlier this year so they could obtain matching shirts with the name of their school imprinted. We thought they might choose a bright color that would stand out but instead they chose a classy neutral color.  Our teachers are on the march --  proudly representing our schools.  The Copperbelt Province Minister was even in the reviewing stands supporting the teachers.   Hmmmm...I wonder if the teachers will request banners to carry in the parade next year.
