LITERACY WEEK 2018. Dear Funtaj Parents, This week we had our Literacy week and the students took part in series of competitions and events to challenge them to explore their literary and artistic abilities. We discovered new talents and helped to build the confidence of some students by ensuring that they also got involved in group and class activities. Every child is celebrated for every little achievement here in Funtaj and encouraged to keep trying until he/she is perfect. This goes a long way in grooming them for leadership positions. We appreciate all parents who made out time to be a part of the event. Please note that the certificates and prizes will be issued on the assembly on Tuesday 6

th February, 8a.m on the assembly.

We will be honored to have you join us for the celebration assembly, if you have the time. Inter-House Sports Competition. Our Inter House Sports competition comes up next week Tuesday 13

th February 2018 and the half

It will hold at Guards Brigade Sports Facility, Aguiyi Ironsi Cantonment, Asokoro. We look forward to seeing all our parents join us for this event. Half Term Break .
