Afterwards, in the month of June, and led by the Education Office, the Archdiocese marked its 23rd Catholic Education Day at Ngenia High School, Limuru whose chief guest was Dr. Joe Gitau an Educationist.   Dr. Gitau in his speech noted that education is a tool which helps us to face and deal with challenges. That it gives us knowledge, confidence and shapes our personality and our future. He said, “Education is not only about gaining knowledge but learning how to use it wisely in everyday life to help others.” The students were then asked to think of education as a healthy food which nourishes and makes them strong and that when they are strong, they are happy and at peace with the world. Carmevale Catholic Primary and Loreto High school – Limuru were recognized as the overall best schools in all categories in last year’s national exam. The two schools went home with the prestigious and coveted Cardinal’s Trophy.
