Welcome to Start-Rite Schools.
It has been said that “Road Safety Education plays an important role in shaping the attitudes and behaviours of young people – ensuring they become responsible drivers and passengers.”
It was all red and white in Start-Rite Schools on Tuesday, 16th July 2019, as children were dressed stunningly for their big day, as the Early Years Reception Class celebrated their graduation to Year 1 Primary School. The bar was set very high with the theme, ‘Butterflies in Bloom’.
Every student loves to get out of the classroom and explore and the students of Start-Rite Primary School are no different. The students did their annual excursions and had fun on their educational adventures around Abuja.
Excursions give exciting educational experiences deeper than the regular school environment and afford another dimension to class-based learning whilst helping to reinforce what has been taught in the classroom. Students get to learn in a new environment and as learning can be hands-on or interest-driven students are excited to learn something from someone new who is an expert in their field.
Start-Rite Schools makes Educational Adventures part of the school curriculum.
