The Reigning Champion 2024
Test of Arabic speaking and Islamic knowledge Skills.
We received another awesome and remarkable performance from our young scholars during the 2024 Reigning Champions Competition, which was held on Sunday, 25th August, 2024.
The online event unfolded with more than 100 participants with the Director of the great citadel of learning, Mrs Monsurah Popoola, the Learning Manager and her team, parents, teachers, the contestants, pupils and viewers in attendance.
The competition was a test of the young intellectuals’ Arabic Speaking skills, General Islamic and Qur’an Knowledge. A total number of 24 brilliant contestants and 12 classes participated in the spectacular competition with two contestants representing each class; a Lead Contestant and a Supporting Lead Contestant. The participating classes were chosen from the advanced level, intermediate and lower levels respectively. The advanced level classes are; Executor and Platinum classes. The intermediate level classes are; Pearls, Emerald, Star and Ruby while the lower level classes are Gems, Sapphire, Opal, Fluorite, Topaz and Onyx.
Like cheerleaders, the classmates of the contestants filled the blossom air of the competition with nice comments of encouragements through the chat room as the contestants took turns to show their competitive skills. We were truly wowed by our scholars’ breathtaking and stupendous performances as most of them swiftly answer 30 questions in less than 10minutes.
While we had Executor and Gems classes as winners from the advanced and lower levels respectively, Star and Emerald classes had a tie. This again tingled the adrenal glands of the pupils and teachers as they flooded the chat room with lots of morale-
boosting comments.
In the end, Star class became the Reigning Champion for the intermediate level classes and the contestants rejoiced. All the pupils truly had a fun and amazing time throughout the competition because the contestants indeed made their classes proud.
Congratulations to the Reigning Champions; Executor, Star and Gems, credits to the teachers and a big kudos to the contestants for the success recorded for their respective classes.
