We have come to the end of another academic year. We thank God for His favour in the

within and outside the school.

SCHOOL ATTIRE
Pupils are expected to be properly dressed to school by wearing their appropriate
uniforms with white socks and black shoes to match. They will only be permitted to
wear white canvas shoes on physical education days (PE). The only school cardigan that
is allowed is that of Raberto school. Improper dressing will not be allowed next term.
Please comply by cooperating with us.
PUNCTUALITY
They say punctuality is the soul of business. We really appreciate the enormous sacrifice
of parents for bringing their ward(s) to school and picking them immediately after
classes. However, we have observed that a larger percentage of the children come to
school late. We therefore urge our parents to endeavor to bring our children on time.
Our resumption time is 7:30 am and close at 3:00pm: Monday – Thursday and 12:30pm
on Friday for Nursery/primary.

SKILL ACQUISITION
In line with the Federal Government’s skill acquisition programme, pupils were taught
how to make liquid soap, air freshener and Vaseline jelly in the cause of the session,
apart from academic. Pupils were able to produce the above mentioned products on
their own. Some of these products were displayed and purchased by parents; in order to
support and encourage our pupils. This vision should not stop here. Rather parents
should provide all the necessary materials for pupils to continue the production at
home.
FLOWER/ COLOUR DAY CELEBRATION
We use this medium to appreciate our parents who created time out of their busy
schedules to attend our “flower and colour day celebration” which was coined at
helping the pupils and parents to appreciate the work of nature and to highlight the
beauty and importance of colours.
SCOUT
The scout club had a three – day camping programme at Gwarimpa Government Junior

to celebrate scout’s centenary anniversary and to train new cub scouts on various scout
rudiments. Certificates of participation were given to the pupils.
MUSIC DEPARTMENT
The music department participated in an inter – school performing arts competition
held on April 23, 2015. Our pupils performed excellently well and their presentation
depicted the story of Nigeria from independence till date. They played the musical
instruments and sang without assistance from their teachers. It was awesome.

Grade one went to Skye Bank. The visit was aimed at acquainting the pupils the
