The Director of the recently opened state of the art Junior High School in Masvingo Urban Noah Marima has said all is set for the opening of the school as they are now only waiting for communication of the opening date from government.
He said enrolment was still in progress for forms one to three and five saying at the moment they are offering boarding facilities to a limited number but are in process of expanding the facility to cater for a bigger number.
“All is in place now. The school is ready to open doors as soon as government and ministry of primary and secondary education announce the opening dates.
“We are still enrolling but currently we have a limited number of boarding facilities, so we will be taking a bigger number of day scholars but we are working on expanding the boarding facility to cater for a bigger number of our leaners,” said Marima.
Junior High School is located along the Harare-Masvingo highway just close to the leafy suburb of Rhodene making it easily accessible.
The school boasts of a number of unique aspects like offering Cambridge syllabus and exams, its niche in science and the quality of teachers it has.
The school head Shirley Makausi is a household name in the education sector in Masvingo and beyond after making her name at Ndarama High School which she transformed from an ordinary high school to one of the most sought after schools because of excellent results.
Makausi will be leading a team of well experienced teachers with impressive track records having won several awards in different areas through their careers.
The school has a beautiful double storey classroom block as well as a state of the art administration building.
The classrooms are well furnished and are spacious to allow for social distancing and maintaining a good teacher-pupil ratio.
“We have the best teachers at our school and cannot wait to start. We are confident that we will produce the best pupils and best results.
“We have a good teacher pupil ratio, spacious classrooms to allow social distancing; modern equipment like interactive boards, projectors, WIFI and many other advanced technologies, ” said Marima.
The school offers both traditional and elite sporting activities and all pupils who would have reached legal age will get licenses, be accorded a chance to have driving lessons from Junior Driving School and would leave the school with their drivers’ licences.
Security is also guaranteed at the school from Junior Security services.
