Mationesa Primary School

Our school recently held a very colourful Prize Giving Day. Madam Muungani from Macheke Government was guest of honour. She congratulated the school for introducing various extra curricular activities that keep learners interested in school. She enjoyed watching our Ballerinas, Gymanastics, Drum Majorettes and the popular News Desk.

Our school has performed exceptionally well in the 2025 Zimsec Grade 7 examination results with a 100% pass rate. More than half of the learners obtained between 6 and 10 units.

On this blessed Sunday, I wish our inaugural Grade 7 class of 2025 all the best in their final examinations. I was happy to spend a moment with the Grade 7 class and was impressed with their composure and readiness to tackle one of the most defining milestones in their lives. They have all our best wishes and may the almighty God guide them throughout. On our part the school has done everything possible to ensure smooth arrangements as our learners embark on this process. God bless.

Our school organised a very successful educational trip to Great Zimbabwe via Mutare with a stopover at Nyanyadzi hot spring, Birchenough bridge and to Lake Mutirikwi for the juniors.
Our learners had the best time enjoying and learning while outside the classroom environment.The knowledge they got from the tour will assist them in Science and Technology and Social science studies.They were taught on how geothermally heated ground water comes out through developed faults on to surface of the earth as well as water coming in conduct with very hot rocks underground (vocanic action and features produced).The Birchenough bridge crosses Save river and was built in 1935 by Sir Henry Birchenough using variety of material such as steel and cement.Lake Mutirikwi is the second inland largest dam in Zimbabwe and with 5 MW hydroelectricity generation .It is also used for irrigation,fishing , supply water to Masvingo town and Nemamwa growth point and attract local and international tourists.The learners were also informed on how the Shona people built the Great Zimbabse ,their lifestyles and systems of their indeginous governance. Learners got excited passing through the Trabablas Road Interchange, the first in Zimbabwe. We are grateful to our parents for their contributions and support which have positively impacted on the success of the 2025 Juniors educational trip to Great Zimbabwe.

We are grateful to staff, SDC, and parents who supported 53 learners to have a lifetime experience learning while exploring at Tambatese Park in Norton. Learners spent the day playing golf, basketball, engaging in cultural activities, and climbing up and sliding from a very tall jumping castle. Children enjoyed their food, including ice cream stops along the 155 km route. We are grateful and thankful for yet another successful school 2025 trip. Beautiful photos have been shared with parents whose children participated during the trip. But here is a glimpse of how it all looked like.
