GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS Title set by GEMS Education Students as UAE National Day Tribute

Dubai: To celebrate the 45th UAE National Day, 2,223 students from GEMS Education institutions in the UAE, gathered to form the 'World's Largest Transforming Human Image' and established another Guinness World Records title while doing so.

With a bulk of pupils coming from Our Own English High school, Sharjah Girls, all the students were created the colours of the UAE flag, and they developed an image of an open hand and after that changed right into the iconic three-fingered salute presented by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, UAE Vice President and Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai.

The three-finger salute created by the Dubai Ruler in February 2013 during the Government Top in Dubai, symbolising 'Win', Victory and 'Love', is an innovative hallmark to motivate youth in job, ethics, success and love of the nation.

The document was validated by Guinness World Records officials at the GEMS Modern Academy sporting activities grounds.

Dino Varkey, Managing Director and Board Member, GEMS Education, said: "The UAE has transformed itself over the last 45 years right into a vibrant modern-day nation that is appreciated by the rest of the world for its capacity to progress and change with all times. By creating the 'World's Largest Transforming Human Image' we wished to commemorate the rulers of the UAE for their visionary management which worked as a catalyst for the growth GEMS Education in this land.

" We want to thank our parents, teachers,student and the government authorities for their assistance and interest in developing such a memorable occasion."

This is the 3rd world record attemted by students of GEMS Education and the second record that they have actually produced as a category. Previously in 2015, GEMS pupils paid tribute to the UAE for National Day by producing the document for the world's largest human sentence. In 2014, students of 119 nationalities from GEMS Education sang the UAE national anthem at once, creating a new world record.
