The Rotary Club of Ikorodu Golden, District 9112, on Friday, May 9, 2025, commissioned a newly renovated block of seven classrooms at LG Primary School, Ipakodo, Ikorodu, Lagos State. The classrooms, designated for special needs students, were renovated as part of the club’s ongoing commitment to education and inclusive development.
The commissioning ceremony was led by the District Governor, Rotarian Olufemi Adenekan, alongside the President of Rotary Club Ikorodu Golden for the 2024/25 year, Rotarian Abolanle Balogun. The event attracted several members of the club, community stakeholders, and school staff.
In addition to the unveiling of the classrooms, the Rotary Club also donated essential learning materials tailored to support the educational needs of special needs pupils.
This project aligns with one of Rotary International’s Seven Areas of Focus—Basic Education and Literacy—which guides clubs in selecting and executing sustainable service projects. The other six areas include Peacebuilding and Conflict Prevention, Disease Prevention and Treatment, Water, Sanitation and Hygiene, Maternal and Child Health, Community Economic Development, and Supporting the Environment.
A major highlight of the event was the induction of three new Rotarians into the club. During the induction, the new members were introduced to Rotary’s guiding Four-Way Test and encouraged to dedicate their time, resources, and service to humanitarian causes.
As part of the appreciation activities, students of LG Primary School entertained the guests with a vibrant cultural performance, showcasing the school’s gratitude to the Rotary Club. The Rotary team also visited the classrooms, where they were warmly received by cheerful and appreciative students, including those with special needs.
