The graduation day was lightened with joyful memories as stakeholders were called and assembled in the school hall to celebrate and give recognition to the bonafide students who will be graduating soon after writing the national examination. The occasion took place on 14th October 2021 at Ngowe Community Day Secondary School. The ceremony included dances, music, and poems among the students.

Notwithstanding that the day was a send-off for the soon-to-graduate students, the Deputy Head Teacher revealed the dire statistics that COVID-19 has had on school drop out for Ngowe CDSS. In his speech as the Guest of Honour, the school Deputy Head Teacher Mr Kumwenda lamented, ‘‘When we started the academic year we had a lot of students, but the closure of schools due to the rise of the Covid-19 cases, some did not come back to school due to early pregnancies and early marriages. I feel very sorry. However, I congratulate these students for withstanding this challenge, Hallelujah!’’

The Guest of Honour also encouraged the students to take care of themselves when they graduate from secondary school. They should protect themselves and utilise whatever they have learnt from the school and should apply this productively for the benefit of their respective families and communities.
