On the 15th of September, the Araceli Aid Foundation proudly opened its prestigious school in Obeagu, Awkunanaw, Enugu State. The long-awaited event marked the beginning of a new chapter in the foundation’s mission to provide world-class education and holistic development to less privileged children and students in the region.
Parents, guardians, and students arrived at the school early in the day, bringing with them an air of excitement and anticipation. The atmosphere was lively, with cool, uplifting music playing in the background as families prepared for the start of a transformative educational journey.
Upon arrival, parents and guardians were greeted warmly by the school’s staff, who guided them through the registration and boarding process. Each student’s belongings were carefully scrutinized according to school regulations to ensure compliance with rules regarding prohibited items. This process, conducted with professionalism and care, ensured that students began their boarding school experience in a safe and organized environment.
The smooth flow of the day allowed both parents and students to feel at ease, knowing that their children were entering an environment that prioritizes not only academic excellence but also discipline, security, and well-being.
As part of the opening ceremony, a special mass was held in the school’s on-site chapel. Led by Rev. Father Christian Iroha, CEO of the Araceli Aid Foundation, the mass provided a moment of reflection, gratitude, and spiritual grounding for the students and their families.
In his message, Rev. Father Iroha emphasized the importance of faith, community, and education in shaping the future of the students. He encouraged them to embrace the opportunities ahead with determination and humility, reminding them that they are now part of a supportive and caring school family.
This session was an uplifting and spiritual start to the academic year, fostering a sense of unity and purpose among the students, parents, and staff.
After the mass at the chapel, students were led to their respective hostels by the school’s faculty and administrative team. The male and female hostels, designed to offer comfort and security, became the students’ new homes for the academic term. Each child was settled into their accommodations, marking the beginning of their new educational journey.
The well-organized resumption process allowed the students to immediately adjust to their new surroundings. As they explored the campus and became familiar with the school’s world-class facilities, it was clear that they were entering a nurturing environment designed for both academic and personal growth.
The opening ceremony was not just a formal event; it symbolized the start of a bright future for the children of Obeagu, Awkunanaw, and beyond. The Araceli Aid Foundation’s 5-star school, equipped with state-of-the-art facilities including science labs, skill acquisition centers, and sports pitches, stands as a beacon of hope and opportunity for every student enrolled.
