- Canisius Secondary School
Canisius Secondary School is one of the earliest centres of learning in Zambia. It is a school that is renowned for its consistent, excellent academic achievements.It is located at Chikuni Mission about 10 km east of Chisekesi town in Monze District in the Southern Province.
The history of the school starts with the founding of Chikuni Mission in July 1905 by Catholic Church missionary Fr J Moreau S.J, of the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) order of priests. The school is named after Saint Peter Canisius (Petrus Canisius) ,the first Dutchman to join the Jesuits. Primary schools were started at Chikuni and surrounding areas from the time the mission was founded, but it was only in August 1949 that the secondary school was opened.
In the years this school has been in existence, it has produced citizens who have contributed greatly in all spheres of Zambian life.
In 2009, Canisius School will celebrate 60years of quality education to the people of Zambia. The Golden Jubilee was very colourfull in 1999 and this is seen to be an even more colourful event as more former students and pupils of the school will want to see the new structures that are making the school even more condusive for quality education.
