The vision of service, which resulted in the founding of S.T. &T REGENCY, was born that ordained morning of May 1995.

I sat on my usual chair in my pharmacy and thought in my heart how very much I would love to have a service business that would serve God and humanity. It was both a deep-seated desire in my spirit. Though I was doing well, I felt unfulfilled in services rendered in the pharmacy.

Serving God through the founding of the school was formally pronounced through the then head teacher of Grange Education, Mrs. Alli, a woman who served without seeking for favour.  She was fair to all and justified in her love for the children she nurtured. Grange had no secondary school then, she prophetically spoke to me this ordained afternoon when I went to discuss my daughter’s progress.  At that time the waiting list for grange was very long but even at that, I desired a secondary school and not at all a primary setting.

All efforts to get a couple of parents interested was aborted and ended in total frustration. I decided to do it alone but the cost was enormous.

Mrs. Nwobi encouraged me to start off a playgroup because she needed a place for her daughter. Besides, my daughter, Simi, was at a playgroup called Jackie’s.  Encouraged by Mrs. Nwobi, I decided to invest Simi’s educational trust fund in building a place I could cater for the children of that age group. I built a four-room playgroup tastefully furnished.

Mrs. Opusunju was the first parent to pay to S.T. &T PLAYGROUP, as the school was then known. Why she came to me I do not know because her family had a long history of Grange Education. My first pupil was therefore SOMIARI OPUSUNJU whom I bless with all my heart and soul. May God make him a great pillar in his generation for being the confirmation of God’s desire to make me his servant through service to children.

S.T. &T PLAYGROUP started in 1996. Within some months Mrs. Mukoro registered her grand son Tega Ajetumobi.

The school was beautifully run. The best at that time. I recall when founders of schools and NGO’s came to borrow leaves from us because they had seen that schools could wear a homely look.

My dream was to mould Teenagers according to the ways God was directing me. Parents started advocating for a primary school and the Ajetumobi’s particularly, were indeed the champion of the formation of the Primary School. Maybe without them I would have gone on to a Secondary School level. God used them as a pointer to indicate that primary level should precede Secondary level for the sake of perfection.

God has been faithful. I have kept my promise. I started with a loan from Afribank Nigeria PLC to purchase the property. I used the children’s educational investment to start off the building of the school now known as S.T. &T REGENCY INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL.

The name of the School, S.T.&T. was primarily formed from MY CHILDREN’S NAMES; S – SIMI, T – TIMI AND T – TEEGEE; but in line with God’s mission for the school, S.T.&T. also means:- S = Stand for the Truth, T = Trust God within His Standards, T = Teach the Truth

This is why our motto became DISCIPLINE, CONFIDENCE, and INTEGRITY. (Representing our interpretation of God’s desire for his children.)

In the year 2005, we started the Secondary level of our journey. The school is known as S.T.T.R COLLEGE.

OUR SUCCESS STORY THIS PAST SIXTEEN YEARS IS NOT THAT OF A PLANNED ORGANISATION BUT THE TESTIMONY OF GOD’S HAND IN THE VISION OF GETTING THE CHILDREN READY FOR WHAT HE IS ABOUT TO UNFOLD IN THE NEAR FUTURE.

Come and build with us. You will be glad you did.
Do not be afraid to pioneer this course because God is firmly behind us, and we are simply doing it His way.
