Titansloaded reports that the annual event, which began on Monday, July 6, 2026, brings together learners, teachers, parents, and members of the school community in a series of carefully planned educational and recreational programmes aimed at nurturing the intellectual, emotional, social, and cultural development of every child.
The week-long celebration opened with Pyjamas Day, a unique activity that transformed the school into a relaxed and exciting learning environment. Pupils arrived in their favourite pyjamas and participated in a variety of engaging activities, including storytelling sessions, educational games, bonding exercises, and supervised nap sessions.
Rather than being an ordinary dress-up event, the activities were intentionally designed to encourage social interaction, improve emotional well-being, strengthen communication skills, and build learners’ confidence in a fun and supportive atmosphere.

We are raising problem solvers, critical thinkers, and future leaders. We build confidence instead of fear, teach our learners to stand for what is right rather than bully others, and instil godly values, integrity, respect, and good character in every child,” she said.
The celebration continued on the second day with Language and Culture Day, an event that showcased the school’s commitment to cultural diversity and multilingual education.
