June 19 is a special moment in the school life of our children: The Pledge to the National Pavilion. On this day we pledge to honor our National Pavilion, symbol of our Homeland and the values that unite us as a nation. This Pavilion represents our identity as citizens and reminds us of the importance of our duties and responsibilities to our country.
The promise to the National Pavilion is more than a protocol act, it is a deep commitment that we assume as citizens aware of our participation in the construction of a just and equitable society. In making this pledge, we are saying that we are willing to work for the common good, to respect the rights and freedoms of our citizens, and to fight for equality and justice.
This date invites us to bring to our memory the image of Artigas, and together with him come to us the glorious facts that founded our independence by the hand of this unique and magnificent figure in the history of Latin America: the man, the caudillo, the driver, the statesman ...
It is to that Artigas that we must pay tribute today: adults, respecting the glories of our history, children, using his example as a man committed to the future of his land.
In the times we live in, it will be good to remember the Artiguista figure as an authentic generator of ideas and defender of ideals.
Let us seek to transmit in children the love for their history, because that will be the best way to honor their present and mark, as people, an imprint on the future of our country.
Remember that each of us has the power to make a difference in our society. No matter how small our actions, every gesture of kindness, every act of solidarity, contributes to building a better future for all.
