His Grace, Archbishop Robert Ndlovu applauded the Education secretariat for creating a platform where learners can socialize and learn from colleagues from different schools.
Speaking at the recently held Catholic Secondary Schools Association choral festival, his Grace said it is a moment where they can interact outside the classroom kind of atmosphere, where they enjoy together, interact and learn from each other so many things, even in the singing itself which is something worth appreciation and praise.
“I would like to thank the Education Secretariat for arranging such a kind of come together, a platform where you safeguard each other through prayer and education, we need to go through these because education alone cannot help this generation desist from drug and substance abuse.
He urged students to learn from each other to become useful citizens of Zimbabwe, as the future is in their control.
“Carry the future with you for the sake of the nation and society, as we count on you”, he added.
His Grace urged the students to remain vibrant in everything that they do to reap good awards in whatever they do.
The guest, Vice President, Chiwenga also applauded the Catholic Church for encouraging music that is educative to the young generations.
He said music teaches them to love God and their neighbours through desisting from drugs and dangerous substances.
The VP said Zimbabwe will go down if this generation is wiped out by their failure to look after themselves.
He hoped that the best choir would sing for the nation to educate the masses.
