💫 Celebrating Leadership, Service and God’s Blessings at Sh*tima Secondary School

As we came to the close of Term II, the Sh*tima Secondary School community gathered for a closing Mass filled with thanksgiving, reflection, and celebration. 🙏

We celebrated the birthday of our current Headteacher, Mrs. Musonda, thanking God for her life and praying for continued wisdom, strength and grace in her leadership.

We were also honoured to welcome back our beloved former Headteacher, Mrs. Maleya, as she prepares to retire from the civil service. The school community expressed its gratitude for her years of dedicated service, leadership, and the lasting impact she has made on Sh*tima Secondary School. 🌹

Fr. Andrew’s reflection beautifully complemented the celebration, reminding us that each of us has a God-given purpose and mission. He encouraged us to pursue that purpose with dedication and discipline, denying ourselves daily and remaining faithful to the journey God has entrusted to us.Just as Christ carried His cross with courage and obedience, we too are called to carry our crosses faithfully, trusting God through every season. Our circumstances do not define our future; with faith and perseverance, we can become instruments of hope, change, and blessing to others. 🌱

We sincerely thank Fr. Andrew for celebrating the Mass with us and for sharing such an inspiring message.

As we close the term, we thank God for His guidance and for the blessing of our leaders, past and present. May He continue to grant them wisdom, grace, and strength.

Wishing all our learners, staff, and the entire Sh*tima Secondary School family a safe, peaceful, and restful holiday. 🌿

Happy Holidays! ✨

WE LIVE TO LOVE ❤️

During the celebration of the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, our learners presented a moving choral poem titled "We Live to Love" a heartfelt reflection on Christ's boundless love, mercy, compassion and hope.

Though we share it today, its message remains timeless: we are called to love because Christ first loved us. May these words continue to inspire us to choose love over hatred, mercy over judgment, faith over fear, and hope over despair in our daily lives.

"We love because He first loved us." — 1 John 4:19

📖 Sh*tima Story Thursday – Entry 24

Every Sh*tima Story Thursday reminds us that the greatest legacy of Sh*tima Secondary School is its people. We are grateful to our alumni for sharing their journeys and inspiring the next generation of learners through their experiences.

🌟 A Second Home
By: Mirriam Mutale, Class of 2024

Joining Sh*tima Secondary School in Grade 11, Term 2 was a new beginning for me. Walking into a new environment wasn't easy, but from my very first day, I was welcomed with kindness and warmth. The pupils were friendly, supportive, and always willing to help, making Sh*tima feel like a second home.

I was privileged to learn under dedicated teachers who encouraged me to grow both academically and personally. My sincere appreciation goes to my class teacher, Mr. Changwe, for his constant encouragement, and to Madam Mponda, Mr. Masamba, Mr. Kabila. Madam Kanshimike and Madam Suntile, whose passion for teaching left a lasting impact on me. Religious Education became my favourite subject because of Madam Suntile's enthusiasm and dedication.

Beyond the classroom, I found friendships that filled my school life with laughter, teamwork, and unforgettable memories. Those experiences, together with the guidance of my teachers, helped shape my character and strengthened my determination to work towards my future.
As I look back, I am grateful for every lesson, every friendship, and every person who made my journey meaningful. Sh*tima Secondary School will always hold a special place in my heart.

With love and gratitude,
Mirriam Mutale

✨ To all former Sh*tima students: Your story matters. Share your journey with us and continue inspiring the next generation of Sh*tima learners.

🌹 Through the Eyes of Her Learners

Every story begins with a person who leaves a mark on others. This week, we pause our usual Sh*tima Story Thursday alumni features to celebrate the life and work of a teacher who dedicated herself to shaping young minds.

Through the voices of her learners, we share memories of Ms. Lucy Konkola a teacher remembered for her guidance, kindness, encouragement, and the impact she made both inside and beyond the classroom.

Each testimony is a small reflection of the many lives she influenced and the legacy she leaves behind.

🕊️ Remembered with Gratitude. Forever honoured.

Proof that Fridays just hit differently. 😄👍

Week 8 is done, the long weekend is here, and if this photo could talk, it would probably say, "See you on Wednesday!" 🌿
