You surely don’t wanna miss this one as we make history again. Together, let’s celebrate and uplift our community.”
The First Assembly is known for its engaging themes, and this year is no exception. Attendees are encouraged to embrace a nostalgic theme by donning their best school uniforms.
This playful dress code aims to evoke fond memories of carefree days spent in classrooms and playgrounds, fostering a sense of unity and camaraderie among participants.
The event is set to kick off at noon, ensuring that everyone has ample time to gather and enjoy the festivities.

In addition to the fun and festivities, Zulu D has emphasized the importance of giving back to the community during this celebration.
He has urged attendees to contribute to the greater good by bringing “supplies” for the underprivileged. Items such as old school supplies, cloth pads, non-perishable food, and other essentials will be collected to support those in need.
“It is a celebration after all! Expect no detention, just positive energy and wonderful moments,” he added.

Zulu D encouraged everyone to mark their calendars and prepare for a day filled with laughter, camaraderie, and a shared commitment to uplifting those around us.
“Don’t be late or else you will get strokes from the principal,” he joked.
