Greensprings School marked Nigeria’s Independence Weekend with fun, culture and uncommon generosity from the school’s students, parents and board. They donated N2m to Sesor to support displaced women and their families. The presentation was made at the school’s National Day after a culturally rich variety show by the school’s talented students featuring poetry, dance, Nigerian fashion & drama.

Helen Brocklesby, Head of School, Anthony Campus, said the funds were raised mainly by the students efforts and would not only enhance the women’s businesses but would help them look after their families.
