Note to Pupils:

What is culture?

Culture is the way of life of a group of people. It includes the things they wear, the food they eat, the way they celebrate, their traditions, and the stories they tell. Indigenous culture includes things like clothing, hairstyles, food, and tribal marks.

Every human society has its own culture. Each culture is unique. A group’s environment often decides the type of culture that develops. For example, a group that lives in a cold, mountainous region would develop a culture different from a group that makes its home in a hot, desert region.
