At Chrisland Schools, one of our primary objectives is to instill in our learners the skills and knowledge not only to compete with their peers worldwide but also to excel. It's not uncommon for them to surpass the competition and achieve global recognition (Top in the World for a reason!).
We proudly celebrate one of our recent graduates, Stephan Mbala! Stephan was a distinguished member of the Class of 2022 at Chrisland High School VGC. Throughout his time at CHSVGC, he stood out as an academic luminary and a role model, ultimately becoming the Deputy Head Boy of the school. In pursuit of his higher education beyond our borders, Stephan applied to six universities in the United States and was admitted to all six, securing five scholarships in the process. He received a competitive scholarship covering in-state tuition, valued at $18,300, along with an international tuition cost reduction and a $100 stipend each semester from New Mexico State University. Furthermore, he earned a $7,000 merit-based Presidential scholarship and an Akron Advantage Award scholarship from the University of Akron, totaling $27,964. Stephan also received a $17,000 merit-based scholarship from McMurry University and a $6,000 merit-based scholarship from West Virginia University. Through these remarkable achievements, Stephan embodies the spirit of excellence that defines Chrisland. We, the Chrisland family, are immensely proud of you, Stephan! As you continue your academic journey, always remember to be a beacon of inspiration, and know that we will be here to support you every step of the way. Above all, never forget the words, “Non Scholar Ced Vita!” Godspeed, Stephan!

Femi Awowade, President of the Financial Scrabble Association, applauded the Winifred Awosika Foundation for its significant impact, emphasising that Nigeria now holds the top position as the best Scrabble nation worldwide.
The Trophy Tour had already made its mark in Ghana and Kenya before arriving in Nigeria, and it will continue to other countries, including Liberia, Uganda, Botswana, and South Africa before the competition begins in August 2023. Dr Awosika expressed her heartfelt gratitude to the organisers of Scrabble tournaments in Nigeria for their relentless efforts in promoting competitions among young people.
