St Mary’s College Mayenze has started the third term with a strong message of faith, discipline, and academic determination. The entire school community gathered for a special Holy Mass on Monday, September 21, 2026, to seek God’s guidance and blessings as learners and teachers begin the final stretch of the academic year. The Holy Mass was celebrated by Father Simon Peter Okumu.
The school community prayed for wisdom, protection, good health, and success, entrusting the new term to God. Particular attention was given to Form Four and Form Six candidates preparing for their final examinations. The school prayed for the candidates to remain focused, disciplined, and determined, while also asking for financial support, wisdom, and the ability to make the right decisions.
The school leadership reminded learners that their future will be shaped by the choices and effort they make today. Students were encouraged to study consistently, use their time wisely, participate in academic teams, and support one another. The school highlighted careers such as ministry, law, engineering, aviation, and public service as paths learners can pursue through commitment to education.
The Mass was attended by the school principal, headteacher, deputy headteacher, and directors of studies, along with other members of the school community. Their participation reflected the institution’s emphasis on nurturing learners spiritually, academically, and morally. The school aims to create an environment where students can discover their abilities and work towards becoming responsible members of society.
To encourage academic excellence, St Mary’s College Mayenze recognised students who produced outstanding results in the recent mock examinations. The high-performing learners were rewarded with a Shs50,000 exemption from their third-term school fees. This incentive aims to motivate students to maintain their performance and challenge themselves to achieve better results.
The school encouraged other learners to view the reward as motivation to raise their academic standards. Students were reminded that consistent reading, discipline, cooperation with teachers, and proper use of school time can make a significant difference as they work towards their end-of-year examinations. The institution is combining prayer with hard work and a renewed commitment to excellence.
As the third term gets underway, St Mary’s College Mayenze is looking ahead with confidence while entrusting its academic journey and the future of its learners to God. With candidates preparing for their final examinations and the entire school community focused on improvement, the institution is optimistic about achieving higher academic standards and the overall development of its learners.
