The families of the students were beaming with pride at their excellent work and outstanding
achievement. We are all aware that the outcome of the results comes largely from the parents'
continued efforts and time in supporting their children.
The Principal, along with the Mkushi District Education Standards Officer Ms Eness Shooba and
Chengelo Trustees attended this ceremony and gave encouraging messages to the whole body of
Chengelo School, encouraging them to continue to maintain and pursue high standards.
In an inspirational moment during the assembly, the Principal referred to the School's exciting
history and vision reminding us that God is and always has been the foundation of Chengelo
School. He went on to encourage students and staff alike to make every effort to use their gifts and
abilities to honour God.
Our school motto "As a witness to The Light" summarises our aspirations for the young people who
attend the school and go on to further education and the world of work. We believe that this
outstanding achievement is a symbol of the fruition of our aim to shape future leaders!
Congratulations to all the students who did so well in these examinations and to the staff for their
superb effort in ensuring the student success!

CHENGELO SCHOOL COMMEMORATES AFRICA DAY WITH
COMMUNITY SERVICE
On 25th May every year, millions of people across Africa and beyond come together in purpose and
spirit to commemorate Africa Day, a day that marks the formation of the Organisation of African
Unity on 25th May 1963 and celebrates African unity.
Chengelo School was no exception to this year’s celebrations. To promote unity and equality within
its environs, the school lined up a series of community service activities for its students to engage
and empower the less privileged children that neighbour Chengelo.
The students took part in a variety of sports with pupils from Kapanda and Nkolonga Schools, gave
them some ICT lessons and read with them. They helped paint Kapanda Primary School and were
actively involved in weighing and feeding babies at Nkolonga Clinic. They also played games with
community children at the bordering Moffat’s farm.
Community Service came to an end at noon and was closed off with a delicious lunch of African
delicacies for the Secondary students and a picnic for the Primary children. The festivities continued
in the evening with students being treated to a packed entertainment night.
Following up on their Africa Day experience, the Chengelo students referred to their respective acts
of service as the highlight of their day. They credited interaction with the community children for
reminding them of key life principles and blessings they often take for granted.
Written by Mrs Alice Mwila, Marketing and PR Administrator
Joanna Bangala, Form 3 wrote: “The experience of being able to interact with others, who despite
our equality as people have found themselves in a less fortunate environment, was quite humbling.
It was flabbergasting to think how geographically close we are to these communities, yet at heart or
in thought, they could be the last things we think about. I personally enjoyed playing netball with
some of the older girls, who displayed great skill and the love for friendly competition. The language
barriers were shattered by the simple yet thoughtful act of love, displayed in finding time to visit and
play with those, we as Form 3B have learnt to call OUR FRIENDS.”
“Africa Day overall was rather good. It was good to give back to the community that surrounds us.
The mothers were all waiting for us which made me feel that they trusted us in our service. God truly
helped me see the value of giving back.” added Chanda Mwamba, Form 4.
“My experience of Africa Day was definitely not what I expected. I didn’t want to get out of my
comfort zone and a 5KM walk to a compound was not how I wanted to spend my holiday. But when
I saw the delight and joy we brought to those children, I realised we are the same. We smile, laugh
and play the same. We are all equal,” said Luyando Chinyama, Form 3.
PRIMARY CELEBRATE AFRICA DAY
Chengelo Primary School celebrated this event in an extra-ordinary way. To commemorate this
important occasion, various activities such as Art and Craft, African drums, Board games and ICT
were organised.
The day started on a bright note with an assembly where
recorder club was given an opportunity to play our National
Anthem. Most of the children were in African outfits which
depicted the significance of the day. The Grade 7’s had
decided to contribute to our community on this day by
painting the classes at Kapanda School. This was an
exemplary act of community service.
To allow children to relax, a sumptuous picnic meal was
served at the Mukuni’s garden. The day was wrapped up
with games at the sports field and all the children had fun.

Form 4/6 Art and DT Educational Tour
As Form 4 and 6 Art and DT classes, we were privileged to go Lusaka for an educational tour from
20th to 22nd July 2016.
The first place we visited was UNZA (University of Zambia) School of Engineering. We were
enlightened on disciplines of Engineering such as Geometrics, Civil, Electrical and Mechanical
Engineering. We had an opportunity to learn about the different methods used for testing materials.
As students, this acted as a practical example of what we learn in class.
We also visited ZASTI (Zambia Air Services Training Institute), where pilots and aeronautic
engineers are trained. We were taught how the jet engine operates, what it is made of, and the
different factors that affect flight.
Early Thursday morning we were at Lamasat. Here
we visited 5 sectors of production. This company is
famously known for its water storage tanks. At first I
thought that is all they do, but I was wrong. They also
specialise in making paints, pipes, packaging and
surprisingly, furniture!
We also visited the Namwandwe Private Gallery,
Signs of the Times and the Henry Tayali Art Gallery
at the Visual Arts Council. These visits were very
inspiring, seeing all these advancements in print and electronic media, amazing artists doing very
extraordinary work, and very interesting meanings behind every stroke and colour.
On our way back to Chengelo we visited Chaminuka. At Chaminuka we saw a large collection of
artefacts and paintings from famous Zambian artists and beyond. Although there was not enough
time, Mr Saidi, our tour guide explained one or two of the paintings. It was amazing!
A special thanks to the school and our teachers, Mr Tembo, Mr Miti, and Miss Luwi. We appreciate
their effort in organising the trip for us.

KUNDALILA XTREME
Kundalila Xtreme is the most high level adventure challenge course in the Chengelo Adventure
Curriculum! Traversing over waterfalls, climbing the gorge cliffs, scaling steep hills, swimming
through rock donuts and exploring deep water gorges are all activities on this course.
Lower 6th Form teams “Frost Bites”,
“Giordano Amigo’s” and “The Craters”
responded so well to these challenges
throughout the camp.
The aim of the course is to test the
student’s attitude towards a challenge, an
aspect which is so relevant to their
Chengelo life.
One of the students explained how on the
rock climb he struggled to find any hand
holds. He related this back to his faith
and how sometimes you have to trust
even on the smallest ‘Holds’ if you want
to move ahead. So true!
Well done to all the teams for your positive attitude towards these adventure challenges. You were
amazing! Keep it up! And stand strong on your Rock! One time for the “Bites”!
Thank you to all the Instructors, Priscilla the cook, Drivers and Tutors for making this camp so
memorable.

FORM 2 TRIBAL SURVIVAL CAMP
Praise God! Tribal Survival was a terrific success. Form 2 students survived everything that was
thrown at them in their wild week in the bush. Waking early each day, the Form 2s were required to
pass an initiation test to earn their breakfast; setting themselves free from handcuffs, eating boiled
brain and lifting the mighty flog in ice cold water!
The flog is an 8m wooden pole that must
be lifted by the whole tribe for rule
breaking and late arrivals. This year Form
2K completed 300 flog lifts before
breakfast in order to earn their final feast of
eggs and sausage. Well done!
So through animal tracking, sleeping under the stars, canoeing
in the ‘Kuomboka’ ceremony and much more, Chengelo Form
2s grew in strength of character and body. Congratulations to
all Tribes for passing the test! We pray that the physical and
spiritual lessons stay with you.
Written by Mr Abraham Ankers, Senior Outdoor Instructor at
Ndubaluba Outdoor Centre
The whole term I had been looking forward to Tribal Survival.
This is a week that each class in Form 2 spends at “Noah’s
Ark Conservatory” on the Young’s farm. Before I left I was
really excited, but also a little anxious about some of the
activities, especially “solitaire”. The week went well and the
challenges were fun. In the end solitaire turned out to be my
special time with God.
Tribal was a wonderful experience for me, I thank God for giving me an awesome opportunity. I
have grown spiritually and physically. I was also able to get to know my friends better.

MT SANCHA (THE ASCENT OF RUMDOODLE)
On the weekend of the 9th and 10th of July, 12
Chengelo students set out for the monolithic
granite dome of Mount Sancha, known to initiates
as 'Rumdoodle’. This immense rock fortress,
seemingly inaccessible, was once an escape for
villagers seeking refuge from invading slave
traders. Fragments of pottery are still found on its
barren summit.
Our energetic band of 12 marched to base camp
in record time and were equally impressive on
summit day reaching the top before midday! This
gave the group extra time to enjoy impromptu
bouldering and a now traditional battle of bush
boule.
Besides the truly breathtaking views across the
Luangwa valley and of the sun's last rays, the real
highlight of this trip was time spent drawing near to
the Creator. He brought us closer to Him and
closer together. I will never forget the words
spoken around the campfire on Rumdoodle.
Praise God and thank you to an especially kind
and capable group who made the adventure all the
more enjoyable.
In the words of David, ‘The Lord is my Rock, my
fortress and my deliverer.’

Instructor at Ndubaluba Outdoor Centre
GRADE 5 ‘PIRATES AND
WARRIORS CAMP’
Phobias were overcome when the pupils set out
on the water in their canoes, excited to paddle,
race and play some water games. Nervous as
some were, they managed to brace themselves
for the challenges ahead of them and as a result,
overcame their fear of the water.
Another real stretch was the 10m high faith pole,
which the children had to climb, trusting that they
would not fall and that if they did or anything
went wrong, their friends would catch them. This
was a great experience as friendships were
strengthened, trust established and more fears
overcome.
Ndubaluba has done it once again!! The centre
has equipped another group of Grade 5 Pirates
and Warriors with key life and survival skills.
This year’s Grade 5 Ndubaluba camp was held
from Monday 6th June to Thursday 9th June 2016
under the theme ‘Stepping out and Stepping
Beyond.’ Course activities included the Bible
Race, Ancient Warrior Olympics, Canoeing and
Ancient Rock Abseil, to mention a few. These
activities were completed by the pupils in their The camp days were concluded with night
two teams.
adventures, gospel fun, and some hot chocolate
and storytelling around the campfire.

RUMDOODLE (OVERNIGHT
CLIMB AND CAMP)
The Bible Race was the first activity of the camp.
Here, the children had to complete set
challenges in order to win word cards which
when arranged spelled the Bible verse - Matthew
14:27. Ancient Art followed and was preceded
by the Ancient Rock Abseil. These activities were
conducted simultaneously between the two
groups, allowing everyone full participation.
This year’s climbing and overnight camp,
Rumdoodle was a great success with many
students, male and female, attending from
across Grades Five – Seven. On the first day,
we did a tiring trek to the campsite following a
trail barely more than a goat’s track that
completely disappeared at times, fortunately we
were led by very competent instructors from
Ndubaluba. After this, there was no rest for the
students who then had to make their own beds
for the night as well as the camp fire. This led to
many interesting designs from hanging mosquito
nets from trees to creating a little stand from
scavenged wood and string so that their net
stayed above them.
After a challenging night on the hill, the students then woke up early and headed down a steep
slope to the climbing site. Here, the students faced two challenging rock walls that they had to scale
to earn their Rumdoodle badge. All students managed to make it to the top of both climbs with such
gusto that afterwards they voluntarily continued climbing across every rock they could find in an
extra bouldering session led by Mr. Abe. All in all the students have enjoyably moved one step
closer to receiving their Rumdoodle Awards.

NEW PRIMARY PHYSICAL EDUCATION T/SHIRTS
We are pleased to announce that the new primary P.E t/shirts are now
available in the school uniform store. Parents can start buying the t/shirts
with effect from next term and children will be allowed to use them for all
Physical Education and Sports activities.
Our current Grade 7 pupils will be exempted from buying the new t/shirts
considering they only have 3 months left before moving into Form 1.
Management has since decided that term 3 2016, will be a transition
period; this means that both the old (white t/shirts) and new (blue &
yellow t/shirts) will be allowed in term 3 2016. Please note however that
from January 2017, the new P.E uniform will be compulsory.

THE BACKPAGE
23RD JULY 2016 ROCKRIDGE CHALLENGE
Primary school pupils were more than
ready for this annual event as the outcome of their training could reveal.
Those cycling had to make sure that
their bicycles were in tip top condition
while the runners were hoping a few
vehicles would be on the sandy road to
reduce the blurring effect of dust on
their vision. None of the children were
willing to face the challenge as a ‘John
Walker’! Unfortunately, sickness befell
two girls two days before the competition and as such their only alternative to be involved in the challenge was to succumb to the walking
category.
The Grade 1 boys braved their first ever challenge by cycling the 4.5 km stretch instead of walking
to and fro at the bottom of the hill as per tradition. Their prowess in the event was so remarkable
that they scooped the third and fourth positions. Liam Holding scooped third place with 19.06 minutes followed by Twalumba Hamutete who crossed the finishing line in 20.32 minutes.
The 4.5 km cycling in the boys and girls category was won by Themba Kayumba (18.37 minutes)
and Philippa Holding (21.49 minutes). Shane Parkes and Julijana Vidmar took the day on the 9km
route with record times of 25.06 minutes and 36.24 minutes respectively.
In the runners’ category, Raphael Chibangu defended his title in the 4.5 km
boys’ category in 23.32 minutes while Elisabeth Phiri recorded her championship exactly seven minutes after the boy champ. The 9 km category saw Craig
Shoko claiming the contest after coming in first in 38.24 minutes. The 9km running race was dominated by the Grade 7s with Natasha Bwalya being crowned
the girls’ category winner when she arrived exactly two seconds before a grade
5 girl, Grace Ngungu who recorded 40.48 minutes in second place.
One would wish this event takes place every term as it unites pupils, parents,
teachers and the wider Chengelo community members as they compete!
Please do come and challenge yourself next year!

CHENGELO’S ANNUAL SPRINT COMPETITION WARMS UP PUPILS
FOR SPORTS DAY
Chengelo Primary, Secondary and Sixth Form students gathered for the annual King and Queen of
the Sprints competition on Wednesday 27 th July, two days before Secondary Sports Day. The Primary students competed in the Prince and Princess of the Sprints races to show that it’s not only
the older members of the school who can run!
After a 60m trial run for the Secondary pupils, the Princess of the Sprints race took place. Eight girls
from Primary School ran the 100m, with Twapalwa Chisanga the victor in 14.40 seconds. This was
followed by the Prince of the Sprints race, won by Lubeba Sikamo in 12.91 seconds, the fastest time
ever seen in Primary.
The Queen of the Sprints was next, with Johanna Bangala beating her sister to first place in a time
of 12.68 seconds. The much-anticipated King of the Sprints was the final event of the afternoon,
with Sambazya Ngulube retaining his title, winning in a time of 11.53 seconds.
The event has surely whetted the appetite of the rest of the school for some more athletics.

PRIMARY SPORTS DAY
The keenly awaited Primary School Sports Day finally arrived at the end the first half of Term 2.
The children had been practising hard for the event and they were all very keen to show off their
abilities and have fun together. Despite it being a very cold and cloudy day at Chengelo, the children remained excited to try their their best and their enthusiasm lifted the temperature.
Grades 1 to 4 began with a ‘round robin’ of events including skipping, egg and spoon race, assault
course and sack race. Meanwhile, Grades 5 to 7 showcased their talents in high jump, long jump
and shot put. The field events were followed by a number of track events of different lengths where
all the children participated in individual races earning points for their houses. The inter-house 4 x
100m relays were very exciting and parents/teachers managed to put together teams, without too
much encouraging, to take part in their own relay much to the delight of the children! There was a
great atmosphere with lots of cheering and the children are to be commended for being fantastic encouragers of one another. A huge well done to you all!

Chengelo Primary School took two teams to
Lechwe School on 18th June for the annual ISAZ
10-Step Athletics. The number of children interested in athletics at Primary School meant that
Chengelo were the only school to take an ATeam and a B-Team to the contest.
The participants were taken through a challenging circuit of ten events including high jump, long
jump, shuttle run and 50m sprint. The variety of
activities meant that the competition was suited

INTER-HOUSE HOCKEY
In their P.E class sessions, Grades 3 to 7 this term focused on hockey. Throughout the term, many
pupils were developing their dribbling, shooting, passing and goal keeping skills. Most important,
was their ability to play as a team.
On 15th July 2016, an opportunity to display these skills was given to the pupils during the InterHouse Hockey event. Divided into not only age groups as Under 10 mixed (boys and girls), Under
12 – boys and girls but also as houses Kudu, Impala and Sable, pupils competed well in a very exciting tournament. In the end, Impala were champions with 13 points, seconded by Sable with a total
of 7 points while Kudu came 3rd with only 3 points. We are indebted to all parents who made it into
school to support the pupils and more so to those who made some contributions to the PTA stand

CHENGELO SHINES AT ISAZ ATHLETICS FINALS
Records tumbled on Saturday, 11th June when 34
Chengelo students represented the Copperbelt Province (Northern Region) schools at the annual Independent Schools Association of Zambia (ISAZ) National Athletics Finals that were held at Levy
Mwanawasa Stadium in Ndola.
The Finals were graced by the very best in ISAZ
schools athletics, representing 14 schools; 6 from the
Copperbelt and 8 from the Midlands, which is predominantly made up of schools from the Lusaka area.
Chengelo students competed for honours in both the
field and track events, contributing to the Northern Region’s overall 500 points win over the Midlands.
Our U16 girls beat their old record by 8 seconds in the 4x400m relay.
What a run this was by Johanna Bangala, Wane Mutambo, Mwaka Mukata and Stella Chanda! The U19 girls were not ready to miss the party as
they went on to set a new time smashing their previous record by a whopping 17 seconds! Well done to Maria Bangala, Rohana Kawinga, Lesta
