A resolve to delve in different waters as a parent led me to enrol my son Andrew as a Pioneer Student at Nova. I have never regretted the decision and Andrew has become an astute, confident risk leader embracing new dimensions in his day to day life. He has achieved so much in his four years at Nova Pioneer. He has endeavoured to be the best in all he does. Indeed he has become a super soaring eagle better than the mother eagle in me.

Over the last two years our daughter has come of age in many ways. First is her belief that she can do anything as long as she puts in honest effort. Two, she is self-driven both in and outside of the classroom - pushing her grades up, excited to debate, learning basketball, co-starting a club, vying for student leadership as well as searching for and applying to various institutions across the world looking to engage with young people. Third, she has grown in confidence - she owns her voice and is unafraid to use it. We couldn't have made a better choice for our daughter.

Since joining Nova Pioneer, my daughter has developed a solutions first approach. She is very intentional on coming up with solutions to various challenges and we discuss them together. She is also very proud of her developing leadership skills which she practices at home with family and friends.
