On Saturday, 22nd February 2025, the school auditorium was filled with excitement and enthusiasm as students, teachers, and parents gathered for the much-awaited Talent Hunt/Exhibition. The event provided a platform for students to showcase their unique abilities in music, dance, robotic, drama, poetry, and visual arts, creating an atmosphere of creativity and inspiration.

The program began at 10:00 am with an opening speech by Sr Catherine Oparaji (Principal), who emphasized the importance of self-expression and the celebration of talent. Unlike competitive events, this Talent Hunt focused on participation and encouragement, allowing students to perform without the pressure of judgment.

One by one, participants took the stage, filling the auditorium with mesmerizing dance routines, soulful musical performances, engaging drama acts, and heartfelt poetry recitals etc. Meanwhile, the art exhibition displayed the artistic brilliance of students, with colorful paintings, sketches, and crafts that captured the admiration of everyone present.

The audience, including fellow students and teachers, cheered enthusiastically for each performance, fostering a sense of camaraderie and mutual appreciation. The events were not about winning or losing but about exploring creativity, building confidence, and enjoying the art of expression.

As the program concluded, the Chairman Planning Commitee (Mr Chukwudi Ekuma Ndubisi) delivered a heartfelt vote of thanks, appreciating the efforts of the participants, teachers, and organizers who made the Talent Hunt a memorable experience. Every student who performed received a certificate of participation, recognizing their courage and passion for the arts.

The event ended on a joyful note, leaving everyone inspired and motivated to continue honouring their skills. With such a successful turnout, the school community eagerly looks forward to the next Talent Hunt, promising even more talent and enthusiasm.

The 2024 Christmas Carol of Nine Lessons held at our school was a heartwarming and spiritual uplifting event that brought together students, staff, parents, and members of the community to celebrate the true essence of Christmas. The event beautifully displayed on December 11th 2024, was a blend of scripture readings, melodious carols, and dramatic performances that beautifully highlighted the story of Christ’s birth.

The Event Highlights

The evening began with a warm welcome by the school vice principal administration Rev Sr Matilda Nwokeji, who emphasized the significance of the Christmas season as a time for reflection, gratitude, and giving. The program then proceeded with the traditional format of nine lessons, where selected students, teachers, and guests took turns reading passages from the Bible that narrate the story of creation, the fall of humanity, the prophecy of the Messiah, and the birth of Jesus Christ.

Each lesson was followed by a corresponding carol, performed by the school choir, staff and parents. Their harmonious voices filled the air with festive cheer, as they sang classics like “O Come, All Ye Faithful,” “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing,” and “Silent Night.” The choir performance was accompanied by a live orchestra of talented student musicians, whose skills added depth and richness to the music.

Performances and Participation

The Nativity play, performed by the drama club, was a standout feature of the evening. The young actors, dressed in vibrant costumes, reenacted the story of Mary and Joseph’s journey to Bethlehem, the angelic proclamation to the shepherds, and the visit of the wise men. The audience was moved by their dedication and talent.

Additionally, the program featured solo performances by gifted students and a special appearance by the teachers’ choir, whose rendition of “God is wonderful” received a standing ovation.

Community Spirit

The Christmas Carol of Nine Lessons was more than just a school event; it was a celebration of community and togetherness. Parents and guardians expressed their joy and pride in seeing their children participate and excel. The event also served as a platform for charitable giving, with donations collected to support local charities and underprivileged families during the holiday season.

Conclusion

The 2024 Christmas Carol of Nine Lessons was a resounding success, leaving everyone in attendance with a renewed sense of faith, hope, and joy. It was a testament to the school’s commitment to nurturing not just academic excellence but also spiritual and moral values. The evening ended with a communal prayer and the singing of “We Wish You a Merry Christmas,” spreading goodwill and festive cheer to all.

We look forward to continuing this cherished tradition in the years to come, fostering the true spirit of Christmas within our school community.
