The countdown to Back Under One Banner
By the numbers
The three days
Four moments across three days. The times below are local to Ajara-Vetho, Lagos.
We begin where the story began: together in assembly, looking back at the school we share and forward to the projects we can build for those who follow.
Ajara Grammar School, Ajara-Vetho
A morning of brooms, rakes and willing hands — giving the grounds and the streets around the school the care they deserve.
Ajara-Vetho
An afternoon to meet again as teammates, supporters and old friends, with the touchline full of classmates and families.
Ajara-Vetho
Three days, one shared story. The closing celebration of Homecoming 2026 — open to everyone who gives back a seat.

Ajara, in photographs
Real views of the buildings, grounds, students and gates of Ajara Junior and Senior Grammar Schools. These archive photographs show the school, not the 2026 Homecoming.
Ajara Junior Grammar School
Ajara Junior Grammar School still wears pink shirts with orange trousers and skirts. Ajara Senior Grammar School wears blue. Both colours belong to the school we return to this October — and to the students following in our footsteps.
Loyalty & Service
Where it happens
The school grounds
The school in Ajara-Vetho anchors our return. The programme begins with Thursday’s assembly and continues with Friday’s community initiative and football.
The junior & senior schools
Pink at the junior school, blue at the senior school. These are the real gates and walls that connect generations of Ajara students.
Admission
The Thursday and Friday programme is free and open to every old student and their guests — everyone simply registers on the portal so a pass can be issued. Gala Night is not sold as a ticket: it belongs to those who give back a seat to a child of the school at ₦50,000 a desk. Give one desk, or give many.

The three pillars
Set-led reconnection, roll calls, class memories, and a dignified return to the gates of Ajara Grammar School.
A handover that the school will see and use — desks, books, infrastructure, bursaries, and a multi-year welfare commitment.
A platform to honour teachers, preserve stories, support students, and strengthen AGSOSA for the next generation.
Travel & participation
Diaspora arrivals are coordinated through the Lagos Continental staging hotel on Thursday with a Friday-morning shuttle to Badagry.
Set captains receive the captain's pack four weeks before Homecoming with seating, colours, and roll-call sequencing.
Every delegate is verified. Badges carry the set year, the table number, and the meal preference — picked up at the school gate on arrival.
