Kenya Union of Post Primary Teachers Union Kisii Branch chairman Laban Bosire said: “It was a great experience. A great bonding, exercising, interaction and socialising opportunity for teachers. It is a great break from the pressures of our job, provided an avenue for steaming off and rejuvenation,” said Bosire.
He said KUPPET Kisii is determined to invest more in such events and give teachers a forum or socialisation, interaction and to raise views on how best they can be served.
"I look forward to even bigger and better events going forward,” added Bosire.
