Back to school in Nigeria

Preparing for school September marks the re-opening of schools and the staff and students of Presentation Brothers Secondary School at Tafawa Balewa in Nigeria are busy making preparations for another school year.

Pictured is Br Vitalis Maabokrkuu (left) in the middle of the meticulous process of drawing up the academic time table for the year. He is being helped by the exams officer, Mr Bami Musa (centre), and Ms Clementina Daudu (right) who is the admissions officer and French teacher.

“We are looking forward to a good academic year full of positive experiences for our students,” says Principal, Br Bernard Gazire. “The school officially re-opens this week but most of the teachers including the newly recruited are here making preparations for the term’s work. This is the first time we are admitting students to do the senior program and there are so many requests for admissions. We hope we can attend to all!”

Best wishes to all the staff and students at Tafawa Balewa and all the Presentation Brothers schools!
