Obert and Rosaria did very well and Linto’s results improved a lot. Our teens did well in their end of term exams apart from Austin and Charity. All had excuses of why they did not perform well.

During this month, the school was visited by the school standard officers in order to assess the school’s suitability for renewal of registration to operate for 2023. The children are happy to be back in school and they are filled with joy and happiness even as they come to school daily.
