An Astonishing 4044 years of Service!

Catholic educators and non-teaching staff with more than 15 years’ service were presented with long-service awards by Bishop Vincent Mduduzi Zungu of Port Elizabeth in Makhanda Grahamstown. The 166 recipients had notched up a total of 4044 years of service to the Catholic school communities of Port Elizabeth diocese. Mass in St Patrick’s church was concelebrated by the bishop with Fr Lubabalo Mguda (vicar for education) and Fr Selwyn Francis of Fort Beaufort.
