HISTORY TRIP TO GREAT ZIMBABWE
The Great Zimbabwe monuments are a significant heritage to Zimbabwe’s history. These ancient city ruins are the foundation of what Zimbabwe is today, with their impressive history and craftsmanship. The school’s history department gives students an opportunity to experience Zimbabwean history, culture and traditions through an annual trip to this World Heritage Site. A visit to Great Zimbabwe is a valuable opportunity to impart knowledge to students on one of the precolonial Zimbabwean states. Students will also appreciate the reality of the country’s history and heritage. The main focus of the trip is on the political, social and economic aspects of Zimbabwean history, as well as an understanding of various sources of acquiring historical evidence, i.e. archaeological, written records and oral traditions.
