School helps train young people on how to live in peace in the family and inculcates the importance of peace as the only way to build the country.
This is the view Auxillium Basic School head teacher Jane Kinyanjui shared with parents and pupils on Saturday during School Education Day under the theme ‘Young people to change the world through love’, Voice of Hope reported.
Sr Kinyanjui explained the celebration was important to show to parents the true changes of education in upgrading the moral standards of young people and forming them for the future.
She said the role of the school is to transform people in both social values and moral principals and to help in spiritual purification.
Sr Kinyanjui added that the school – as the Catholic mystical body – helps train young people on how to live in peace in the family.
She urged parents to send all children to school to become better future leaders.
Major John Kuria Waithaka, from the Kenyan Battalion serving with UNMISS, appreciated the activities performed by pupils, terming them as more than adult people in terms of creativity.
He described South Sudan as a country that is speeding up development and needs the assistance of all for the progress to continue forever.
Major Kuria accompanied the commanding officer with a call of helping the young people in the country.
The Kenyan Battalion donated pens, notebooks and a trophy to Auxillium School for long progress as a sign of encouragement to the pupils.
Auxilium Basic School is a co-education Catholic school operating in Wau under Salesian community.
