In a statement issued by the school management, the Proprietress, Oluwamodupe Lawrence disclosed that the school has continued to make giant strides in academics, aside from promoting and maintaining high co-curricular activities.
The school’s bi-annual Inter- House sport is a competition that is primarily aimed at testing the physical skills and strength of young athletes. It is also an avenue for promoting unity and friendship among students as they compete in various field and track events.
Mrs Lawrence also explained that the event would serve as a nurturing ground for developing team spirit in the pupils. Her words: "Everything in school is not about academic but also about how to develop pupils for greater challenges in the future, which include athletics and other games that require skills. Nowadays sportsmen contribute immensely to the growth of the society’’.
According to her, sports open up opportunities for pupils to choose career at young age, adding, "The inter-house sports of this nature will expose the pupils to competition in sports or other vocations."
Mrs Lawrence also revealed that, sports provide unique opportunities for people to meet and interact freely. She also advised participants to see the competition as a game but not a do or die affair. "Share fun with everyone," she added.
Builder International Group Schools was established in 1998 to offer educational development for kids who are leaders for tomorrow.
