Well even as a day student they dealt with me . They tried with my sister but found out she was a mad woman even the teachers left her alone anfter trying hard she will do no punishment and refuse to get flogged, Her motto was pull it through no matter what comes .

Most of those fucking bitches were girls that my brother had ,had, refuse to have , used or what ever.

i went to St. Louis Grammer School boarding school, and its controlled by those catholicsand trust me those sisters were mean like hell, and some of the seniors were kinda mean too.
i am so glad i only used one year in that school before i came to the US.

i thought it was going to be real fun but it wasn't that fun

Went to boarding school at st louise grammar school Akure it was fun only for seniors and those juniors with school mama connections and we dint hear much about lady koi koi but a girl confessed one day after a snake was killed in one of the supervisors house that she was the snake and she wanted to bite the baby of the woman though it was a hush hush thing cos her parents were sent for and by the time I heard about it they were coding the gist and by then I dint understand Yoruba wella. But boarding house is intresting and fun I am glad I boarded its a good experience would like ma kids to go to boarding school too but when they are in senior class though.

To re-live your boarding school experiences, check-out the "Feddie Girl" novel by Nona David. It's about the hilarious adventures of an American teen in a Nigerian Federal (Boarding) School and documents the whole juicy details from a fresh angle you've never imagined.

Novel Back Blurb:

FEDDIE GIRL is an international adventure/thriller about the experiences of an American teenager in a Nigerian boarding school. This novel offers a unique reading experience--witty, fun, and exhilarating. The masterful suspense, action, and sub-plot will curl your toes, keep you reading all night, and leave you thirsting for more.

Carlotta Ikedi (A.k.a Feddie Girl) has never liked school. Not in California. Not in Oklahoma. When her exasperated parents ship her off to boarding school–in West Africa–Carlotta faces a life, culture, and existence unlike anything she’s ever known.

School rules and regulations, rising bell, lights-out, manual labor, inspections, dining time, prefects, punishments, mean bunkmates, and visiting days–it’s all here. But author Nona David takes Carlotta’s story a step further when her adventures lead to unfortunate incidents that threaten to drive her American family into the clutches of infidelity and organized crime.

Boarding school doesn’t get any better than this…

For those who have experienced the boarding school life, the adventures of Feddie Girl will bring those memories crashing back… For anyone else, get ready to see the world as Feddie Girl.

I love my stay in the boarding school. We were assessed depending on our behavior and our weaknesses eradicated. Choice of subjects is important and were guided towards a career for which were are suited and in which we have an interest or hopefully a passion. Great experience.

Boarding schools are really great. it's one of the best ways on how to become independent and gain more self-confidence. It's one way also to discipline your self.

I am Writing Essays about boarding schools and its difficulty. There is always a pros and cons being away of the parents and it could be a great impact or a negative impact to one's child. I am having boarding school now and its a bit okey for me but not just that great.
