The Rokel Commercial Bank ,this time round decided to organize the annual nationwide Secondary School Quiz Competition within Moyamba District in which four schools are participating including the Harford Secondary School for Girls, St Martins Secondary School for Boys, St Joseph’s Convent Secondary School and St Michael’s School for Boys.
The four schools are to battle for an ultimate cash prize set aside by the Rokel Commercial Bank.
However, one of the schools, St Martins unfortunately failed to avail themselves for the competition which ultimately became a three horse race between Harford, St Joseph and St Michael’s.
The St Joseph Convent Secondary School was humbled by St Michael’s in the opening first round of the competition. Two girl’s schools, Harford and St Joseph were set to lock horns later in what many have described as the clash of the Titans.
The Secondary School Quiz Competition in Moyamba has come on the heels of another hotly contested one in Bonthe District where the Rokel Commercial Bank had since last year extended its operations.
“We are definitely breaking new grounds with this initiative that is geared towards promoting financial literacy as well as complementing the Free Quality Education…the Rokel Commercial Bank National Secondary School Competition has become an eagerly anticipated event among students across the country,” said the Public Relations Officer of the Bank, Rev Spillsbury Williams.
