This time round, the Open Day is themed –Home and Abroad, which gives a better perspective to the services we offer in the college. Oxbridge College has created a niche for itself in the area of foreign education and being a dynamic institution, we cannot but take cognizance of the realities of our present situation. Thus an A ‘Level qualification from Oxbridge does not only prepare you for foreign university education, but also a lot of quality universities in Nigeria and West –Africa, such as Pan Atlantic University Lagos, Elizade University, Ilaro-Mokin, ABTI , Yola, Babcock University, Ilisan -Remo and University of Lancaster in Ghana. Schools in attendance for the event were Ronik College, MS Grammar School, Great Joy and Atlantic Hall all in Lagos. The occasion, which started at 10am and ended at 3pm, had the privilege of having some of our alumnae such as Mr. Ogunbode, Mr. Chinwuko and Ms. Fadairo who shared their experiences and insights with the guests.

Oxbridge Academy hosted some top Educational consults to a seminar on Wednesday 6th April 2016. The purpose of the seminar was to invite new student recruiters to join our team of agents and also to train them on the subtleties of the International Year 1 programme at the Academy. The International Year 1 (Business) is equivalent to the first year of undergraduate studies in business related courses at any UK university. The students will spend one year at the Academy on the IY1 programme, thereafter progress to complete Year 2 & 3 at any of the 11 NCUK partner universities. The International Year 1 is quite affordable especially now with the challenges parents are encountering with in accessing FOREX. Studying Year 1 in Nigeria before proceeding to UK means that parents can save up to 50% on all costs (both tuition and living expenses) in the first year without compromising on the standard their children would have received if they studied Year 1 in the UK. Oxbridge Academy promises quality and guarantees student progression upon successful completion on the International Year...

On the 2nd of February, 2016, the As-Law students went on an excursion to the Combined Magistrate and High court Ikeja, Lagos. This allowed the students develop an insight into the legal system, as various cases were heard and debated. Structures such as adjournment, trial, and judgement were noticed as the judge applied her judicial knowledge. Other legal personnel were seen which improved our practical insight such as the barristers and solicitors. We also got to understand the recording processes applied in cases. It was an amazing and eye opening exercise in general. KENNEDY EZENAGU...

The college, on the 4th of March 2016, joined the rest of the world to mark World Book Day in a programme themed: HOLD A BOOK, READ A BOOK. Incidentally and symbolically, as part of the programme for the day, in an effort to sensitise the college community to the beauty and value of reading, everybody had to carry a favourite book. When the programme finally commenced at 2:30pm the expansive Dining Hall had been decorated to create a book-friendly ambiance, with some invited publishers displaying books for everyone to appreciate and buy. The Special Guest / speaker, Okechukwu Ofili, who is an alumnus of the college, set the ball rolling by talking about how he not only transformed from being a below-average student to being the renowned author he is today. He also read from his bestseller, How Stupidity Saved My Life. Members of staff and students equally had the opportunity to read from their favourite literary works. The wish of the organisers of the event is that we would all imbibe a life-time healthy reading...

The annual Oxbridge International Universities Fair was held on the 29th of February, 2016. This event has always created a forum where top universities from all over the world and other educational institutions gather to meet interested applicants and enlighten them about educational opportunities. Apart from schools that were invited to take advantage of this unique opportunity, our students and parents were at home to be rightly guided educationally. Foreign universities such as University of Bradford, University of Leeds, Leeds Becket University, Liverpool John Moores, Manchester Metropolitan University, University of Salford, University of Sheffield, and Sheffield Hallam University were represented by their Representatives.

On the 25th of February 2016, AS and A2 Art students had the privilege of visiting the Yaba College of Technology. When we arrived, we were responded to swiftly by some lecturers at the institution. We went through ceramic rooms and were spoken to in detail of the development stages taken and learnt about different moulding materials. The tour guide covered each level of the entire building; the painting section, texting, ceramics, graphics and even the fashion design room. The tour guides were friendly and often switched to give us more information about each specific mode of Art. After taking pictures in various rooms we concluded the trip by looking at some beautiful statues, sculptures and architectural pieces that were placed around and beside the main building. It was a very successful trip as we were exposed to many other art techniques that we were not familiar with. We also, to an extent, got a visual simulation of what other art styles, other than painting, appear to be. Overall it was an extremely productive excursion. Oluwatimilehin Osunneye...
