Class of 2025 Leavers’ Assembly

On Saturday, we held a memorable and meaningful Leavers’ Assembly to bid farewell to our Year 11 students-the Class of 2025. It was a wonderful occasion filled with reflection, celebration, and appreciation.

The event was honoured by our esteemed Guest of Honour, Dr. Atikonda Mkochi, the first female Executive Dean at the Malawi University of Science and Technology. Her presence and inspiring words added great value to the occasion and left a lasting impression on both students and staff.

Several students were recognised for their outstanding achievements in various areas, including academic excellence, exemplary behaviour, and long-term commitment to the school. Notably, Alinuswe Nkama received an impressive nine certificates, followed closely by Rehana Banda.
