2025 Second Homecoming Reunion

27 Years After Graduation · 9th Anniversary of FGSCAA

· Festac Town and Amuwo Odofin, Lagos

In December 2025, members of the Festac Grammar School Class of 1998 Alumni Association came together for the Association’s Second Homecoming Reunion, marking 27 years since graduation and FGSCAA’s 9th anniversary. Under the theme “Rekindle the Flame,” the programme brought together service, health and wellness activities, education support, fellowship, awards and celebration.

The Homecoming reflected a tradition that had increasingly come to define FGSCAA gatherings: reconnecting with classmates while also giving back to the wider community and supporting the next generation.

Rekindling the Flame

The 2025 Second Homecoming Reunion brought together the different dimensions of FGSCAA life: service, education, health and wellness, friendship, recognition and celebration. Twenty-seven years after graduation, the Class of 1998 returned not simply to remember the past, but to strengthen the relationships and shared purpose that continue to shape the Association.

The principal Homecoming activities took place on 19 and 20 December, with an additional family-friendly meet-and-greet forming part of the wider reunion programme on 21 December 2025.

FGSCAA continues to preserve and expand its historical archive. Additional authenticated records and photographs from the 2025 Second Homecoming Reunion may be added as they become available.
