After many hurdles, essays, interviews and a rigorous selection process, a student of Aduvie International School has emerged as the next Common Wealth Torch Bearer for Nigeria based on her sports and humanitarian achievements.<\/p>\n

This was disclosed by Head of School, Aduvie International School Abuja, Mr. Abiodun Olusoji in an interview in Abuja weekend.<\/p>\n

According to Mr Olusoji, \u201cWe congratulate her and her family members for the extraordinary performance. We feel happy and fulfilled as teachers and as a school. We feel motivated to do more because our students are doing us proud, not only in academics, but in every facet of school life. We feel proud of our country, Nigeria. We congratulate the winner, Aduvie International School and Nigeria\u201d.<\/p>\n

He stated Aduvie students were part of the twenty-five students from five secondary schools in Nigeria who faced a panel of judges from the University of Birmingham to determine the Common Wealth Torch Bearer for Nigeria during the Queen’s Baton Relay at the University of Birmingham Campus, UK between 28th July and 8th August, 2022. After three days of rigorous interview for all the 25 nominees, two of our students finished in the top three.<\/p>\n

\u201cA female student from Aduvie International School emerged the winner and will hold the Baton for Nigeria at the University of Birmingham, UK. The programme will take place between 28th July and 8th August, 2022.<\/p>

\u201cWe are using this opportunity to congratulate our country, Nigeria, Aduvie International School Governing Board, our Chief Executive Officer, Management, Students, Parents and Staff\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

The Head of School said the panel of judges examined each applicant’s records in the following areas in addition to other criteria such as essay writing and oral interview: sporting achievement (preferably at state level or higher) academic excellence and services to the community (for example to local charities or NGOs).<\/p>\n

As schools resume for the new session in the Federal Capital Territory Abuja, Olusoji urged students be determined, focused and hardworking because the sky is only the beginning and not the limit adding \u201cIn Aduvie, we are raising students that are exemplary in learning and character, and who will stand tall among their contemporaries, in Nigeria and all over the world. We encourage all our students to explore all our co-curricular activities alongside the academics because classroom learning alone may not be enough to make every student a balanced\/total child and world ready\u201d.<\/p>\n
