In a symphony of joy, pride, and tradition, Mother of the Redeemer Catholic Secondary School (MORCASS) celebrated the graduation of its Class of 2025 with a vibrant ceremony that beautifully blended spiritual grace, academic excellence, and youthful talent. Held amidst cheers from parents, teachers, and alumni, the event was a radiant showcase of the school’s unyielding commitment to nurturing students who embody knowledge, faith, and morals.

The Principal’s Benediction: A Farewell with Faith

Rev. Fr. Harrison Egwunu, the esteemed Principal of MORCASS, opened the ceremony with warm and heartfelt words:

“You are not merely leaving this school; you are entering a world that desperately needs your values. Go forth with courage, integrity, and faith. The world awaits the light you’ve been trained to shine.” His prayerful message set the tone for an occasion steeped in gratitude and hope.

Chairperson of the Parent-Student Association (PSA), Mrs. Ochei, offered her heartfelt congratulations to both students and parents, applauding their resilience and commitment to excellence.

“The future is in good hands because you, our children, have been equipped for greatness. Stay grounded and keep aiming higher,” she encouraged.

Adding a powerful alumni voice, Mr. Uzum Emmanuel, President of the Mother of the Redeemer Catholic Old Students Association (MORCOSA), welcomed the graduates into the alumni community.

“You’re no longer just students — you’re stewards of the MORCASS legacy. Wear it with pride, carry it with honour,” he declared, as he officially inducted the Class of 2025 into MORCOSA.

Celebrating Excellence: A Salute to Academic Giants

The highlight of the event was the presentation of prestigious academic awards by the Resourceful Youth Network Initiative (RYNI). Represented by Mr. Uzum Emmanuel on behalf of RYNI’s founder and CEO, Dr. Lawson Obazenu, the awards were presented to celebrate academic distinction and inspire continued excellence beyond the school walls.

The Best Graduating Student Award went to the brilliant Sakpaide Akpevweoghene, a shining star who captivated the school community with both her intellect and integrity.

Other awards were given to top-performing students in Science and Arts, across SS1 to SS3. The overall best science student prize was won by Sakpaide Akpevweoghene , while the overall best Art student prize was won by Ughe Esther Oseluesmhen. Seven remarkable scholars who scored 300+ in their UTME received ₦70,000 cash prizes, a testament to the school’s culture of academic distinction.
The awards were a symbolic passing of the torch — urging the students to carry the spirit of academic discipline and hard work into their future endeavors.

Dr. Obazenu, through his message, encouraged the graduates to hold fast to the values and drive for excellence that MORCASS instilled in them.

“These awards are not the end of your journey, but a challenge to rise even higher,” he said.

A Joyous Celebration of Talent and Transition

As the cake was cut, certificates handed out, and cultural dances graced the stage, the celebration transformed into a moment of unforgettable memories. Talented students showcased skills in music, dance, tailoring, makeup, and other vocations — a testament to the holistic education MORCASS provides.

And So They Rise…

With applause, and joy in their hearts, the MORCASS Class of 2025 stepped into the world — not just as graduates, but as changemakers. Rev. Fr. Egwunu offered a prayer of protection and guidance, sending forth the Class of 2025 with wings strengthened by wisdom.

From this sacred ground of learning, they soar… ready to conquer, to create, and to shine.
