of Engineers produced the architectural designs and the internal construction regiment had started digging foundations. The institution is being built on a 500-hectare piece of land that has been donated by the district council.
“The syllabus will focus on inculcating discipline, patriotism, national pride and a comprehension of the country’s history,” Ndlovu said.
President Robert Mugabe is the patron of the school, Defence minister Sydney Sekeramayi is the first trustee, retired Army General Vitalis Zvinavashe is the second trustee, and Army General Constantine Chiwenga is the president of the trust.
The boarding school will only enroll students who have attended one of the 12 primary schools that are currently being run by the ZNA through the directorate of Army Education.
The school is being built with funds raised by a committee headed by now-exiled businessman Enock Kamushinda. A number of companies, including banks and parastatals, were forced to donate towards the fund. It will also be party funded by the fiscus. – Own correspondent
