Hard Work Pays
At First Model College, Owo, Ondo State, Nigeria, we believe that hard work is the foundation of success. The saying "Hard Work Pays" is not just a phrase but a guiding principle for our students, tutors, and entire school community.

Hard work means putting in consistent effort, staying disciplined, and never giving up, even when challenges arise. For our students, this could mean studying diligently for exams, practicing skills in sports or arts, or contributing to school projects. Every drop of effort counts, and over time, these efforts yield remarkable results.
Take, for example, the story of a particular Senior Secondary students who struggled with mathematics but dedicated extra hours to practice and seek help from tutors. Through persistence, this student not only passed the subject but scored an A in the last West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE). This is proof that hard work transforms dreams into reality.
At First Model College, we celebrate hard work ethic. Our tutors encourage students to excel academically, character development, practical Entrepreneural classes (SAED, ICT, Music, Photography, etc.) and our extracurricular activities teach teamwork and perseverance. We remind our students that success is not about being the smartest or the most talented but about showing up every day, giving your best effort, and learning from mistakes.
As young individuals, the journey of hard work may seem tough, but the rewards are immense. Whether it’s earning good grades, winning competitions, or growing into responsible citizens, hard work always pays off.
Let us, as students of First Model College, as we approach examination period, embrace this value and make it our path to a bright future. Together, we'll keep working hard and shining bright. God bless you.
