Winstonians Association launches website

HARARE - The Winstonians Association, representing former pupils of Churchill Boys High School in Harare, has launched a members' website - www.winstonians.org.zw
Last year, The Zimbabwean reported that former pupils of one of the country's most influen

tial schools in terms of development of sporting talent had formed an old boys’ fraternity, to pursue a number of programmes to benefit to its membership, whilst at the same time promoting the welfare of the school, particularly in the sporting and academic fields.
“Since we announced the establishment of the association last year, we have been able to successfully launch a website. The Interim Committee is still working on modalities to formally register the Association as a Trust, and we have since received expressions of interest from a number of influential people, who would like to participate as Trustees,” said interim chairman Blessing Chiutare recently.
However, the association failed to hold its inaugural Annual General Meeting (AGM), slated for the end of July 2005, due to resource constraints.
“In view of these challenges, we decided to begin with a membership recruitment exercise first, whilst we worked out the modalities of holding the AGM. A website is a useful tool to enable us to interact with our membership, whilst we work on institutionalising our programmes. We are still confident of harnessing the goodwill of all former pupils, to make this association a success,” he said.
The association’s website includes an online membership database to enable members from all parts of the globe to join and participate in discussion forums, and upload information such as pictures and profiles. – For more information contact Blessed Chiutare +263-11210181 or Lloyd Katiza +263-91402488
