Youth day celebrations 2021
/in General, Holiday /by Jolande SwartzOur school celebrated youth day in style this year, thank you to faculty, learners that made it a memorable day.
History of youth day in South Africa June 16.
Youth Day commemorates the Soweto youth uprising of 16 June 1976.
In 1975 protests started in African schools after a directive from the then Bantu Education Department that Afrikaans had to be used on an equal basis with English as a language of instruction in secondary schools.
