Head of Corporate Strategy, Greensprings School, Uche Ogbu says as the first thinking school in Nigeria, Greensprings remains committed to provide a well-rounded education.
Ogbu observes that even though the school is very serious with academics as exemplified by the performance of 5 of its students emerging Top in Country in the 2019 IGCSE examination, we take extracurricular activities very serious.
Speaking about the performances of students in the Christmas shows held across all four campuses of the school, Ogbu expressed happiness about the students’ performances adding that “The stunning performances of our students in these shows support the fact that we are a school that support all round development”
Greensprings School celebrated Christmas shows across its four campuses including Anthos House, its school for special needs education. The shows were attended by parents, members of staff of the school and well-wishers, and the students thrilled the attendees with stunning performances.
Onayimi Aiwerioghene, a parent while speaking at the school’s Ikoyi campus Christmas show themed A Midwife Crisis, said, “I have never seen a school’s Christmas show production this good! The costumes were perfect, and the storyline of the nativity of Jesus dramatized from a midwife’s perspective was compelling.”
“The midwife heard the news of a king that’s going to be born soon, so she wanted to be the person to take the delivery and be glorified. She believed that kings are supposed to be born in the palace; so she ran helter-skelter in Jerusalem, looking for the palace where Mary would give birth to King Jesus – only to discover that Jesus has been born in a stable. And rather than Jesus needing the midwife for his delivery, it was the midwife that needed Jesus, so as to be safe and free from sins.”
“The teachers put in a lot of effort in preparing the students for the show, and the students did very well. I enjoyed the show as it was filled with excitement from beginning to end. Kudos to the teachers!”
The Christmas show themes for the school’s Lekki and Anthony campuses are AIDA and Revelations respectively, and the parents at the shows also spoke to our reporters on how much they were captivated by the presentations of the students.
