CONSOLATA HIGH SCHOOL - NAMPULA
With the closure of the Consolata Propedeutic Seminary, at the end of last year 2015, it has paved way for the restructuring of its buildings for another purpose. The Propedeutic Seminary in Nampula will hence be turned into a Pre-university school, admitting students (both boys and girls) who have successfully completed their basic secondary school. The school is meant to offer a better quality of education and it will be exclusively administered by the Missionaries of Consolata.
FAREWEL PARTY
On 15th of April, the parishioners of Our Lady of Peace (Nossa Senhora da Paz), Nampula organized a very enjoyable farewell party for their out-going parish priest who had been transferred to Maputo. The Father had worked in that parish for three years. He completed the building of the new church.
