                                                         THIS IS IT

                            s it real? Is this actually the end? Am I about to end this journey? All these questions I keep on
                            asking myself but I have to wake up to reality that I have finally attained this height after all
                        Ithese years.
                          It is just like yesterday that I entered secondary school. My first day in secondary school is still
                        fresh in my mind and here I am today telling a tale of how I spent six years running a race that
                        works as if it just started yesterday.
                          Never to forget the first day I stepped my foot on the ground of
                        this  great  institution.  The  environment,  at  first,  was  quite   Truly, this school

           these three years has shown me  and taught me a lot . Being a new student, it was   me a lot of
           quite hard to fit in because there were new behaviours, names and attitudes to   interesting,

           admission process. I want to give a shout out to Vivian who was also a new   encouraging ordeals.

           want to acknowledge Mr. Ijeh who was there to guide me and lead me through
                                                                                     and joy. It was quite
           every situation then.
                  Truly, this school has really seen me through and shown me a lot of   hard for me to fit
           interesting, educative and encouraging ordeals. There have been moments of   into the system but
           sadness and joy. It was quite hard for me to fit into the system but with the kind   with the kind of

           ground of justice and so on.
                  I  also  want  to  use  this  opportunity  to  thank  the  teachers,  Mrs.
           Anyanebechi for being more of a mother, Mr. Onyekaomakani; and other teachers who were always there for us
           to correct our mistakes and to also bring us up when we fall. I want to say a big thanks for all their love and support
           towards us.
                  I want to thank the school for giving me a great opportunity to handle a post. Being the Health Prefect had
           a lot of tasks but I was able to work through the tasks. It takes a great experience leading a school and being called
           a leader.
                  With great love and thanks, I want to appreciate my lovely parents for being able to enroll me in this great
           institution. I am really grateful for their guidance and advice. You both stood by me right from the start till this
           moment. I pray that God will grant your heart desires and I promise never to disappoint you in this life. I Love you
           both.
                  No, to acknowledge this wonderful set which I was built upon. This 2k19 set is seen from a unique
           perspective by all. I am very thankful to God for placing me in a set like this. Truly, I am indeed proud of my
           mates. Although, we sometimes acted in contrasting ways, we still resolved  those problems and moved on. I
           would love to thank Vivian for always being there, Mmesoma Ike, Nancy (roomie), Akunna, Kosi, Olan, Ume
           Mmesoma, Kene, Adaeze, Chidinma, ChidimmaEze, Jane Obimto, EbubeOrakaeze, Spubby, Susu, Sparta,
           Somachi, Chidubem, Ikechukwu, Soft, Stanley Ume, Chikamso (bestie mi), Jones and others for playing a part in
           my life. I will really miss you all. This 2k19 set is truly a legendary group and will leave a mark in the hearts of all
           Grundtvig staff and students.
                  I give all thanks to God for being the author and finisher of my faith. I am grateful to Him for being there
           to guide me throughout these years without any disappointment.
                  It has been a very great accomplishment being part of this great institution. The people I met, the stories I
           heard and the experiences I got from this school are truly worthwhile.
                  Finally, I want to say a big thanks to the Management, Staff and students of Grundtvig International
           Secondary School. It was a very nice experience being part of this great family and I pray that G.I.S.S will live to
           progress more and more.
                  At this point, I stand firmly to say “THIS IS IT”.
