Saint Joseph Secondary school of St Peter and Paul parish opened officially on 19 February. Voice of Peace Radio reports.
Kocholo Sebit, the Deputy Principal of the school says the school has resumed with the big turn up from students who have already been enrolled.
Sebit reveals that this year there has been a huge demand on Church’ schools and one hundred and sixty students have so far been register in senior one.
He notes that many of the former students have not reported because of reports that Form Three and Form Four were not going to operate.
