South Africa – Freedom Day is celebrated on the 27th of April in South Africa. It celebrates freedom and commemorates the first elections held in 1994 in South Africa where both white and black people were allowed to vote. Prior to 1994, only white people were allowed to vote. Black people had very limited voting rights. On Freedom Day, the people of South Africa celebrate by eating special dishes likes Vetkoek (Fried bread with filling), bobtie (spicy quiche), and peppermint crisp tarts.
Hi Chavda,
ReplyDeleteI see that you have posted the activity prompt for South Africa's Freedom Day. Would you like to add some more information about the country? We'd love to learn more about the holidays that are celebrated in South Africa and/or learn about what you would do if you were visiting South Africa on Freedom Day. Would you try a peppermint crisp tart, some bobtie or some Vetkoek?
I'll check back soon to see if you've had time to post a reply!
Cheers,
Rachel :)
Thank you
