Dear Parents and Guardians,
IGCSE Results Release:
November IGCSE examination results became available at 8am this morning and were shared with our pupils. Thank you to the parents who came through this morning to celebrate with their children and to finalise academic programmes with our academics team. If you are still needing to connect with our Examinations Department or Academic Team please would you contact us making use of our Reception Cell Phone number – 0777 733 029 – as our landlines are still down.
Our overview of Examination Results will be made available to parents in due course through a newsletter from the Headmaster.
2023 School Indemnity Form:
If you have not already completed and returned this year’s school indemnity form, please do so. Form is attached and should be returned on reception@mcc.ac.zw
Parents Who Pray:
A reminder to you to consider joining our MCC Parents’ Prayer Group to pray for our children and our school. Please use the link to do so.
Patience Tsvakwi is the Parent Prayer Coordinator.
Form 1 Camp:
Our Form 1s are having a good time in Victoria Falls. Their programme is a blend of team building and further orientation as to who we are as MCC and what it means to be an MCC Eagle. They also have had the opportunity to visit the Crocodile Farm (Thank you to our parent, Mr Hlatywayo, for the concessionary rates) and to tour the mighty Victoria Falls with the professional and experienced guides of Africa Travel and Tours (thank you to our parents, Mr and Mrs Machipisa, for donating this service). They have also been afforded the privilege of a tour of the Victoria Falls International Airport courtesy of another parent, Mr Masawi. We endeavour to give our students a holistic experience and always appreciate parents who partner with us in order to support this.
Form 1 parents who are able are invited to join us for the Form 1 Camp Feedback Assembly on Monday 23 January 7:30 – 7:50am in the school hall. Camp photographs and the official camp video will be made available after this.

Reflection:
“O give thanks to the Lord, call on His name; Make His deeds known among the peoples. Glory in His holy name; Let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice. Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face continually [longing to be in His presence]. Remember [with gratitude] His marvellous deeds which He has done, His miracles and the judgments from His mouth,” – 1 Chronicles 16:8, 10-12 (AMP)
