The Ministry is aimed at producing 21st century learners who are globally competitive, hence government invests heavily in the education sector,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>To the pupils who had not won any prize, he advised them not lose hope as this was not the end adding that there would be many more opportunities coming their way to prove their mettle.<\/p>\n<p>Acting school head Ms Banabotlhe Chimbobi said the purpose of prize giving ceremony was to celebrate success in all its forms as publicly as possible .<\/p>\n<p>She said the ceremony was a great thing to do for learners and one of the most rewarding things about working in a school.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe also wanted everyone to revel in learning, to value it as an activity and a cool thing to do\u201d she said. She explained that the school which was named after Kgosi Bathoen II started operating in 1993 hence the 30th celebration.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/botswana\">Botswana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Botswana.
