DOWEN COLLEGE NEWSLETTER EASTER 2010 EDITION
FROM THE PRINCIPAL’S DESK : Dear Parents / Guardians, We thank God for a successful term. It was full of fun and brilliant academic pursuits. We also thank you (our dear parents) for your unflinching support and great understanding in our day to day dealings with you. It’s our prayer that the Almighty God continues to strengthen us all. Our drive towards having the best for and out of our children will not be relented. We would definitely not settle for less for our children, to achieve The Best !. The trip to South Africa was very educative and enlightening; apart from visiting places of interest, the children gained a lot of experience about things related to their IGCSE Geography and Economics classes. Dowen College Charity Club took a trip to Ghana where they were able to reach out to the Motherless babies Home in Osu, The Kwame Nkurumah Gardens and the Ovation House (Headquarters of Ovation Magazine) all within the vicinity of Accra. They also travelled out of Accra to Cape Coast to see the Slave Dungeon at the Elmina Castle. The children learned a lot about the historical perspectives of slave trade in West Africa. The trip was quite refreshing for both the children and teachers that accompanied them. We use this medium to invite and solicit your attendance as we prepare for our 10th Annual inter – House Sports scheduled to hold on the 16th April, 2010 at the University of Lagos Sports Complex, Akoka Lagos. We promise that this year’s Inter House Sports will be fun filled and relaxing for all of us. Please make it a date ! A two week (2) Easter holiday extension classes for the JS 3 and SS 3 students will be held as follows:
(A) MONDAY MARCH 29TH – THURSDAY APRIL 1ST, 2010. (B) TUESDAY APRIL 6TH – FRIDAY APRIL 9TH, 2010. The extension classes will operate between 8.30am and 2.30pm. Boarding facilities are available for N 20, 000:00 payable to the school bursary on or before Monday March 29th, 2010, to help make adequate arrangements. The next term (Summer Term) is an examination term and we appeal to all parents to kindly support the school in making the children comfortable and well prepared for the end of session examination particularly the JS 3 & SS3 students. On our side we are doing all we can to make them come out in flying colours. It is my fervent prayer that the message of love, forgiveness and healing that the Easter Holidays brings shall remain with everyone of us Forever. Wishing you all a Happy Easter Celebration!
