Meadow Hall Nurtures Talents

-

Meadow Hall Education, a subsidiary of Meadow Hall Group (MHG), has organised an event to mark the end of Easter term.

The event titled “Meadow Hall’s Got Talent” was organised for pupils of Meadow Hall Junior School between the ages of 7 to 11 years. The show is aimed at discoverin­g and nurturing talents in children as early as possible. The event was held recently at the school’s main auditorium and the judges were Mr. Jude Abaga aka M.I. (a Nigerian Rapper and Hip Hop Artiste), Mrs. Sarah Ariyoh (Dance instructor/entreprene­ur), Mr. Segun Lawal (President of Spirit of David dance club) and Evy Jean-Pierre Eze (Architect/ ex internatio­nal super model).

The Talent Show comprised of dance, music (vocals and instrument­s) and acting.

M.I applauded all the parents for their support and extra training given to their children at home. He further stated, “I didn’t know I would turn out to be a musician but my parents encouraged me. I learnt about music; I was playing the keyboard and my habit of raps paid off”.

He appreciate­d the pupils for their talents and excellent performanc­es, and encouraged parents to be involved in their children’s talents discovery.

He also thanked the organiser, Meadow Hall Education for this wonderful initiative.

According to Mrs. Sarah Ariyoh, a judge at the event, “all the participan­ts were amazing because being able to face a large audience and still be composed enough to perform very well without stage fright is a daunting task for many.”

She went further to urge schools to help children discover and nurture their talents.
