Science Club: Young Inventors

                     Science Club
Science club in Great Heights Academy with the slogan ‘The Young Inventors’ has gone beyond mere theory as it is in most schools. Here, it is in its pragmatic phase where pupils make things rather than just sit back and watch them unfold. Particularly in this year, there seems to be a very big U- turn from the old ways to the 21st century way of clubbing. You know, there is nothing more intriguing than seeing children creating functional stuffs out of simple available materials as such giving a green light which indicates that in the nearest future, our country -Nigeria would be capable of competing among other developed nations in the field of technology.



In fact, as far as science club is concerned, we have recorded a number of noticeable successes in this year and we hope to continue in that line as not even the sky will be our limit insha Allah. Our creative and gifted hands all together on deck made some remarkable creations like the GHA-LRV i.e. Lunar Roaming Vehicle that automatically moves around when set on motion; GHA-SF i.e. Standing Fan which is 100% functional; GHA-WV1.0 i.e. Wind Vane that really shows the direction of the wind; jet engine simulation and lots more.
                                                                    

                                                                                                               However, simple materials that are readily available like 9-volt batteries, DC motors, flexile wires, adhesives, sellotape, bottle tops and caps, chopsticks, switches, masking tape, pipe, chicken bread, cutter, disposable plates, straws, cardboard, pencil, pin, play-doh, marker, strings, balloon and so on, where used to achieve all these and many more.
In conclusion, all these breakthroughs where achieved as a result of the financial support and pacesetting from the school management as well as the readiness and cooperation on the side of the children. As we continue to work tirelessly to achieve our clearly spelt out goals, watch out for more jaw-dropping creations as more are yet to unfold.

Who is an Educated Child?

Who Is An Educated Child? Nowadays, people mistake the knowledge of ABC and 123 for what education is all about. It is a very wrong notion and as such most contemporary schools emphasize more on knowledge while all other aspects of education like social behavioral patterns and values such as respect, honesty, sharing, taking turn, culture and lots more are paid less attention or completely neglected. On this ground, despite all odds, Great Heights Academy singled out of the manifolds with a paradigm shift. Unlike other schools, here every aspect of education carry’s equal weight. Therefore, a child must acquire the necessary knowledge, skills, values, beliefs, and norms of the immediate society to be considered educated. Hence, the question ‘who is an educated child?’  According to Wikipedia, education in its general sense is a form of learning in which the knowledge, skills, values, beliefs and norms of a group of people are tr

The fear of failure is end of progress

I am not judged by the number of times I fail, but the number of times I succeed, and the number of times I succeed is a direct proportion to the number of times I fail and keep trying.        Excellence can only be achieved through experience. Provided you are not afraid of failure, success is your next door. Righteousness + Hard work + Attitude = Excellence That moment when you lead your children to the promise land and they can't stop seeing you as their hero
