What's happening at Father Flower.

Ngezi High Form Fours tour Kadoma General Hospital

Form Four learners from Father Flower Ngezi High School went on a career-guidance tour of Kadoma General Hospital. They visited the nursing school, where tutors showed them how to dress a wound and feed a baby, and the pharmacy, where they were advised to study Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics. They also saw the X-ray department, outpatients, theatre, the wards and the laboratory.

The learners came away inspired. They said hospital work needs teamwork, dedication, professionalism and compassion.

A new name: Father Flower Educational Network

The Father Flower Group of Schools is now the Father Flower Educational Network. The new name reflects the founder's vision of a network that grows from primary and high schools into colleges and universities, first across Zimbabwe and then beyond. The schools, staff and values stay the same.

Top Grade 7 results and major rewards for parents

Learners at every Father Flower primary school scored strong 6 and 7 units in the 2025 ZIMSEC Grade 7 examinations. The group recorded a 97% pass rate.

To thank families, Dr Jimmy Lemekani-Waya announced “Parents Need A Break”, a free holiday programme for parents to destinations such as Victoria Falls, Nyanga, Great Zimbabwe and Hwange National Park. He also announced holiday salaries for all staff from 2026, a third school bus, and a business partnership with DCK Group of Companies. Primary, secondary and tertiary scholarships are planned.

“I'm not taking my child to another school for Form One. He will stay at Father Flower for his O Level. The school is moulding disciplined learners.”
