Education is one of the greatest investments parents can make in the lives of their children. Choosing the right school is therefore a crucial decision that requires trust, confidence, and assurance that children will be guided by capable hands. One school that embodies these values is Merosa Academy, a learning institution committed to nurturing young minds and shaping responsible future leaders.

Parents who enroll their children in the school do so with confidence, knowing that their children are placed under the guidance of qualified teachers and caring staff members who are passionate about education.
Dedicated and Professional Teachers
One of the major strengths of the school is its team of dedicated educators. Teachers at the academy are not only instructors but also mentors who guide students academically and morally. Each teacher pays close attention to the individual needs of students, ensuring that no child is left behind.
The school also maintains relatively small class sizes, usually around twenty students per class. This allows teachers to give personalized attention and closely monitor the progress of each child.
Through this supportive environment, students develop confidence, discipline, and a love for learning.
A Well-Rounded Curriculum
The academic program at Merosa Academy combines both Nigerian and international educational standards. The curriculum includes subjects such as English language, mathematics, science, social studies, arts, ICT, and physical education.
Beyond academics, the school encourages extracurricular activities that help children discover their talents and develop essential life skills. Activities such as sports, music, creative writing, and public speaking contribute to the overall development of students.
This balanced approach ensures that students grow intellectually, physically, and socially.
A Safe and Supportive Environment
Safety and security are key priorities at the school. The campus is carefully managed with trained security personnel and controlled access points to ensure that students are protected at all times.
The school also promotes an inclusive atmosphere where students from different backgrounds and beliefs are respected. Anti-bullying policies and strong moral guidance help create a positive learning environment where every child feels valued and secure.
Strong Communication with Parents
A major factor that strengthens parents’ trust in the school is its commitment to communication. Teachers regularly interact with parents during school activities, and the school organizes meetings and conferences to discuss students’ academic progress and development.
This partnership between teachers and parents ensures that every child receives the support needed to succeed both in school and at home.
Conclusion
Merosa Academy stands as a place where parents can confidently entrust their children to dedicated educators. With its passionate teachers, balanced curriculum, safe environment, and commitment to character development, the school continues to play an important role in shaping the future of young learners.
For parents seeking a school that combines academic excellence with strong moral values and personal care, Merosa Academy represents a reliable and nurturing educational home for their children.
A Trove of Tales is a collection of short stories written by young but brilliant and talented potential minds all from our noble school, Merosa Academy, Apo. This collection of tales is a publication that comprises fourteen intriguing, inspirational, and page-turning superb stories coupled with super exciting styles of writing. The styles of their writings not only define these erudite writers’ idiosyncrasies but the styles are used deliberately to drive and deliver their narratives to their readers.
DO WE STILL HAVE GOOD WRITERS?
One of the most respected and first African novelist, Chinua Achebe, whose great and classic story reshaped and projected African in a better light from the version the western world mirrored Africa for centuries in the writings of the likes of Rudyard Kipling, Joseph Conrad argued in his book titled THE TROUBLE WITH NIGERIA that, “he and his generations were the luckiest writers in the history of Nigeria”. Of course his observation at that point and a decade ago was affirmed by all his audience. It is important to note that his generation had writers like Wole Soyinka, J.P.Clark, Ngugi Wa’Thiong, Flora Nwapa, Zulu Sofula, Miriama Ba among a host of other talented potential writers. Fortunately for the world of literature and with the kinds of uniquely tangled stories you are about to witness here in Merosa Academy Abuja today Achebe’s observation will become a serious topic of debate. Yes! With pride we stand bold to tell you that the best and luckiest writers are about to be known. This generation’s luck surpasses every other generations’ because they are more enlighten and has greatly evolved aided by Technology and Artificial Intelligence. They thus used this development for upgrading intellectual upliftment rather than utilizing it with immoral intent.
YES, WE DO!
From the foregone it is noted that one of the utmost ways of leaving an indelible mark on earth for every human is by writings and not just writings but superb and fantastic writings that directly or indirectly solve problems and contribute greatly to knowledge. William Shakespeare died over 400 years ago but he is known through his writings all over the world and his works still remain classics. Coming to Nigeria, the name Achebe can never be erased from Nigeria’s history so also is with Wole Soyinka and among many others.
The Goal
Merosa Academy is not a school that concerns its learners with conservative learning patterns; the school goes extra miles to help its learners to self-discovery; opening their minds and assuring them that they are beyond limits. It is out of this that the idea of encouraging the learners to start going beyond their limits, empowering them to reach for their stars and Soaring higher for ultimate results is initiated.
Consequently, a remarkable height has been achieved by these learners. The journey has begun and Merosa Academy is ready to discover as many as possible learners and train and guide them to continue the culture of fitting our learners among the global achievers in all spheres of human endeavor and making sure they sit at the head of every table they find themselves.
A GLANCE AT THE STORIES
The title of this publication as stated in the ab initio is A TROVE OF TALES by Merosa Academy Students from different classes; High school and Primary school respectively. The word “TROVE “, which is the key term in the title means “collection” hence, the title means, “A collection of stories “. These short stories are independently written by every single learner whose name appears as an author on the pages of content. The content of the story ranges from world view, exploring real life scenarios to cutting across boundaries. Like most professional writers write, these learners mostly writes from various literary perspectives. Among the common perspectives are reality, a theory that unravels situations the way they are in the ordinary human world. It avoids euphemistic writings and hyperbolic explosions. The perspectives or theory of writings serves as a mirror in the society. This theory can be found among the writings of Zitara Oje’s THE YARN’S FUTURE; Natasha Egabor’s FATHERS OF ANGUISH; Hasanat Abdulfatah’s THE BIG MISTAKE; Ogalla Michelle’s CRUMBLED WORLD OF LOGIC; and Solomon Mumuni’s THE PRICE OF DESPERATION. These stories listed are majorly concerned with realistic issues. These situations are experienced in almost every continent of the world. However, the stories can still be examined or study from different points of views resulting to their beauty aesthetically.
Another interesting literary theory used in telling their stories is psychoanalysis. Psychoanalysis in literature deals with the motivation behind every human (character’s) action and also the relationship between the conscious, subconscious and unconscious minds; it was pioneered by SIGMUND FREUD, an Australian Neurologist. So in the end of Zahra’s tale, for instance, the narrative voice says “peace had returned but they knew this was only the beginning”. The beginning of what? And what influenced the return of Peace? All this is achieved by Zahra through the power of psychoanalysis.
Another mind blowing tale that confronts the readers is ‘Reunited Sisters’ by okeke kosi. Okeke takes us from the African continent to a state in USA, California to enlighten us about a family of five with superpower, a power that is directly ignited by love. This is a story that is powerfully intriguing and full of suspense.
One of the most fantastic features of these young erudite writers is their ability to imagine beyond their immediate world view. Among this category are: In plain sight by David Hart (a romanticist inclined tale); Lily’s Scary Dream by Isabella mokidi ( A Gothic perspective tale);The Ghost of Sabrina Logic by Ogalla Michelle (also a Gothic based tale);The Magic Within by Hussain Abubakar; Honey by Chizaram Nnamd; Life is a Bar of Soap by Oloyode Oluwalabaki; and The Travails of Somto by Oriasotie Mary.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, the world needs a balanced story that pour out the heart of every individual and mirror a slice of every society for better understanding of humanity and peace co-existence.

Goal-setting is a powerful skill that helps children become more focused, motivated, and independent in their learning journey. At Rosa Academy, we encourage students to develop this habit early, and we believe parents play a vital role in guiding them through the process.
Here are practical steps to help your child set and stick to academic goals this term:
Reflect on the Last Term
Help your child evaluate their performance. What went well? What areas need improvement? This reflection builds self-awareness and direction.
Set SMART Goals
SMART stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound. For example: “I want to improve my math score by 10% by the end of the term.”
Break Goals Into Smaller Steps
Large goals can feel overwhelming. Help your child break them into weekly or daily actions—like practicing multiplication for 10 minutes a day.
Create a Visual Tracker
A simple chart or sticker system can make goal-tracking fun and motivating.
Celebrate Progress, Not Just Results
Recognize effort and improvement along the way. It keeps morale high and helps maintain momentum.
*6. Stay Consistent and Supportive
Check in regularly, offer help when needed, and avoid placing too much pressure. Let the process stay positive and growth-focused.
When students are empowered to set and work toward their goals, they take ownership of their learning. With your support and Merosa Academy’s nurturing environment, your child is set up for a successful and fulfilling term.
Mum stood by the kitchen counter, a warm cup of tea in hand, as she watched her son scribble something in his homework book. She wanted to help, but didn’t know where to begin.
“He says I don’t explain things like his teacher does,” she confided in a friend at work the next day.
It’s a common feeling. Many parents want to support their child’s education, but often feel unsure or overwhelmed. The good news? You don’t have to do it alone.
At Merosa Academy, we understand that education is most successful when the whole community is involved, parents, teachers, and even extended family. Here’s how you can make a meaningful difference in your child’s learning journey:
Stay Involved in Their School Life
Attend parent-teacher meetings, review class notes, and ask about their day. It shows you care and keeps you informed.
Create a Learning-Friendly Home Environment
Have a dedicated space for studying, minimize distractions, and make books and learning tools easily accessible.
Encourage a Growth Mindset
Praise effort over results. Let them know it’s okay to make mistakes—what matters is learning from them.
Be a Role Model
Show curiosity, read often, and talk positively about school and learning.
Build Relationships with Teachers
Open communication with your child’s teacher creates a strong support network.
Remember, the little things matter. Your encouragement, consistency, and interest go a long way in shaping your child’s attitude towards learning. At Merosa Academy, we partner with you because we know that behind every thriving student is a village that cheers them on.
So, we’re already a few weeks into the school term, and the initial excitement of “back to school” has probably settled into regular routines, or maybe a little chaos. If your mornings still feel like a mad dash of searching for socks, spilled cereal, and missing assignments, you’re not alone.
Here at Merosa Academy, we know that the smoother your mornings run, the more peaceful your day feels, and the more ready your child is to learn and thrive.
So, whether you’re still getting the hang of things or just want to fine-tune your family’s routine, these tips are for you.
Keep Evening Preparation Going Strong
School might be in full swing, but evening prep is still your best friend. Encourage your child to lay out clothes, pack their school bag, and review homework the night before.
Stick to a Morning Checklist
A visual or written checklist helps children stay on track. Include simple tasks like brushing teeth, dressing up, eating breakfast, and grabbing their bag.
Wake Up Before the Rush (If You Can)
Just 15–20 minutes of quiet before the household wakes up can help you feel calmer and more in control.
Prep Easy Breakfast Options
Rotate 2–3 go-to meals your kids enjoy that don’t take time—think oatmeal, toast with eggs, or fruit and yogurt.
Set Boundaries with Devices
Keep mornings distraction-free by saving screen time for after the routine is complete.
Offer Gentle Reminders and Encouragement
Avoid nagging by using a warm tone and encouraging cooperation. A smile goes a long way.
At Merosa Academy, we believe that supporting families is part of nurturing successful students. When mornings go smoothly, your child arrives at school ready to learn and confident to engage. You’ve got this—and we’re cheering you on every step of the way.
