The Children’s Centre

By reading we learn,
by knowledge we serve

The Children’s Centre is a project of the University Women’s Association offering children the educational and recreational facilities they need for development. It originated out of the desire of women at the University of Nigeria to create an environment that would enable children and youth to realize their full potential.
