Looking back at the time spent at Schola Nova I can’t help but tear up. Without an ounce of exaggeration, they were the best years of my life!
When I was 10 years old, my Headmistress urged me to participate in Debate competitions. I remember the butterflies and knots I felt in my stomach the first time I had to speak in a room full of 100 people. My pre-performance anxiety was nothing as compared to the thrill I felt being up on stage. At the age of 10, that was the first time I realized how to play at my strengths and focus on my personal development and there has been no looking back since then!
While every other school promises quality education and excellent grades, I am most grateful to Schola Nova for teaching me basic life skills and how to play at my strengths. Now, in a Conference Room full of 30 colleagues, all eyeing the same promotion/reward, I know what actions and words will push me in the right direction. I know what needs to be done to shine bright and stand out! Thank you, Schola Nova, for making me believe in myself.
