WARM WELCOME FOR NIGERIAN TEACHERS

Two teachers from Nigeria have been swapping stories with pupils and staff at Windlesham House School in Washington after an enlightening two-day visit.

Adegoke Ayansola and Olumide Oniyide teach at the Day Waterman College – a co-educational boarding school for 11-18 year olds set in a 25 hectare site in Asu near Abeokuta in Ogun State.

They visited Windlesham on Monday 2nd and Tuesday 3rd November in a bid to gain experience of English boarding schools, on their first visit to the UK.

During their stay, they observed lessons as well as gave a presentation to the pupils about school life in Nigeria and the diversity of social groups in the country.

Headmaster of Windlesham House School, Richard Foster, said: “My wife Rachel and I have plenty of ties with Africa and it was a pleasure to welcome the two teachers who, I hope, gained much from their visit to Windlesham.”
