School Closing Ceremony

Members of the high table watch dances and other performances by the students.

The first stage of XO testing was concluded on the school’s closing day, after students completed their end-of-term examinations. The day was marked with fanfare, photo shoots and an address by some of the stakeholders with excited students and parents looking on.

The event was also spiced up by the students with performances in the form of traditional dances, activities and school work done on the XOs, a technical demonstration by some students on how to maintain and troubleshoot on their XOs. --Ahmad 13:11, 13 August 2007 (EDT)

Graphic encouragement for the young, Interviewers-in-the-making.

In the days that followed the Close out, the team returned to the school to meet with students (as scheduled between both) to work on the Our Stories activities. Asabe and the students also organized an indoor picnic with the students to spice up the preps for the Our Stories activity. This included rehearsals for "Interviews" the students would conduct among themselves and with other people at their respective home areas. XOs would be used as the interviewing tools (audio-video capture). It seems Ahmad got a little too excited while observing and he drew a logo; Galadima News Network to inspire some of the students on conducting interviews...like pros.
