Reliving Independence Day celebrations

During our days as boys and girls, there were only two important places to visit on independence day: The village kgotla and your primary school. It was literally difficult to sleep on the eve of the Independence Day, thinking about the day’s activities.

Clad on our short-sleeved khakhi shorts and shirts complemented with black shoes and socks, our cups locked up in front of our trousers with a plate under the armpits, we will hit the ground for the venues of the big day.
