St Peter’s Boys National School, Mumias, has held a special prayer session for this year’s KCSE candidates, with the boys committing themselves to excel in the forthcoming national examinations.
The prayers brought together candidates, teachers, parents and invited guests as the school prepared its learners for the final examinations.
Speaking during the session, the school’s chief principal urged the more than 670 candidates to remain disciplined throughout the examination period, warning that any errant behaviour would not be tolerated.
