Africa Day in Washington-DC. Visitors enjoyed the Zambian food.

Last Thursday, 28th May, we loved hosting the brilliant students from John Eaton Elementary School at the Embassy.
As part of their Capstone Presentation, these talented learners shared everything they learnt about Zambia’s rich culture and tourism during the 2025/2026 academic year. From a creative skit about traveling to Zambia to a beautiful rendition of our National Anthem and a traditional Zambian song, their passion and enthusiasm completely blew us away!
Well done, John Eaton Elementary School! 👏✨
Thank you, Washington Performing Arts, for this incredible partnership. 🤝🎶
