It all began with a prayer, followed by other activities o: dances, songs, poems, prize-giving and a meal to round off the day. The children presented a newspaper summarizing their school year and many other activities. From now on, the kindergarten children of the pies de bamendjou schools are on vacation. See you next year for a new school year full of great things.

This May 29, 2024 marks the end of the school year for kindergarten children at COSCABIC Bafia. It all began with a mass celebrated by Father Brice Kamga, assisted by Father Ferdinand. During the homily, the children responded to Father Ferdinand’s question: “What do you have to do to be a friend of Christ when He says let the little children come to me? Don’t insult, share, be obedient, don’t cheat – these were the children’s answers. In conclusion, Father entrusted the children to the Lord, for without Him nothing is possible, not even their education. After mass, the other activities o followed: dances, songs, poems, prize-giving and a meal to round off the day. The COSCABIC Bafia kindergarten children are now on vacation. See you next year for a new year full of surprises and adventures

Today, Friday May 17, 2024, as part of the “school garden” activity, the children of the Bamendjou Pies schools took a tour of their vegetable garden on the Bawam (Bamendjou) side to weed the farm and enable our plants to grow better. Supervised by Father Daniel and the school’s teachers, the children did their best to control plant growth and pull back weeds. It was an edifying experience for all concerned.

Last Sunday, May 5, 2024, the Complexe Calasanz Bilingue Calasanz in Messamendongo hosted the thanksgiving mass of Reverend Fathers Tertullien and Ferdinand, and the sacrament of Baptism and First Communion for the school’s students. Before the mass, the fathers gave the sacraments of confession and reconciliation to the former baptized, followed by the mass. It was a beautiful mass, both for the fathers and the children who took the sacrament.

Yesterday, April 18, 2024, Collège Technique Saint Joseph Calasanz in Bandjoun hosted the mock practical exam for ESF Terminale students. This is the last step before the actual exam. Our students were put in the real conditions of the official exam. It was an opportunity for them to face the jury, made up of teachers from the college, as it was the practice zero exam coming from the region. While we hope they’ll be ready for the end-of-year exams, we wish these young people much courage.

The Easter recollection for COSCABIC BAFIA teachers took place yesterday, with this recommendation from the school’s pastoral coordinator: let’s not be traitors to others in our families, our places of service and in society. During this day of meditation and communion with the Lord, several activities were carried out, including the Stations of the Cross, confessions and mass. It was a great moment of recollection, before the rites of Holy Week begin today, March 28 (Holy Thursday).
