Hola School for the Mentally Handicapped brought the year to a colourful and memorable close with a joyful end-of-year party that celebrated teamwork, dedication and the progress made throughout the year.
The idea of holding the party was suggested by Mr Jilloh Elia Wilson, whose proposal received unanimous support from the teachers. With the backing of the school administration, the teachers took the lead in organising the event, demonstrating the power of unity and collective responsibility.
The preparations were a true reflection of teamwork. Teachers, non-teaching staff and learners participated in various activities, with each person carrying out their assigned duties. A goat and other essential items were purchased, while a sumptuous meal was prepared for everyone to enjoy. Fruits and soft drinks were also provided, ensuring that the occasion was both enjoyable and memorable.
The venue was colourfully decorated, creating a warm, welcoming and festive atmosphere. As the celebrations unfolded, teachers and staff members enjoyed delicious meals and refreshing soft drinks, sharing laughter and strengthening the bonds that unite the school community.
Teachers reflect on the year's progress
The master of ceremonies, Mr Elia, guided the programme and invited teachers to share their remarks. In their contributions, the teachers acknowledged the positive progress made during the year and encouraged one another to remain committed to achieving even better results in the coming year.
Madam Dishani Leah, the deputy head teacher, who was recently promoted to the position of head teacher, urged her colleagues to demonstrate greater commitment to their duties. She emphasised that dedication and professionalism were essential to improving the quality of education and ensuring the wellbeing and development of learners.
School leaders call for stronger collaboration
In his address, the head of institution, Mr Hiribae Mwangala, called upon teachers to strengthen collaboration and work together towards the success of the school.

He observed that a school is a system comprising different actors, all of whom must work harmoniously for meaningful progress to be achieved.
His message reinforced the importance of teamwork, mutual support and shared responsibility in advancing the school's mission.
Celebration renews commitment to learners
The colourful ceremony concluded with prayers seeking God's guidance, wisdom and protection for the teachers, non-teaching staff and learners as they looked forward to the coming year.
Ultimately, the end-of-year party was more than just a celebration. It was a demonstration of unity, appreciation and collective commitment to the welfare and education of learners with special needs.
The event left everyone with renewed hope, stronger relationships and a shared determination to make the coming year even more successful.
