Abu Dhabi:
The wife of UAE's President Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan has
expressed the hope that the successful experience of providing
military education at secondary level in Abu Dhabi will be
extended to all schools across the emirate.
The UAE's first lady Sheikha Shamsa was speaking at a ceremony
held at the Abu Dhabi National Theatre for the commencement of the
girl graduates, who completed military education in the Abu Dhabi
secondary schools during the academic year 2010-2011.
She expressed pride in the graduates, who proved their desire and
commitment to this highly important aspect of education.
The commitment of Emirati girls to security and military education
makes them ready to serve the homeland, to defend its gains and
protect it from all dangers, Sheikha Shamsa said.
The present military education programme was implemented at
selected secondary schools in the emirate under the tile "The
Flags".
