Dear Alumni and Friends,
Welcome to the official website of Our Lady of Apostles Secondary School, Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria, and the North America Chapter of the Old Students Association (OLAOSSA). Whether you’re a proud alumna, a prospective member, or a supporter of our mission, we’re glad you’re here.
It is a great honor to serve as President of this remarkable chapter and to help lead us into the next phase of our collective journey. Embracing the past, shaping the present, and inspiring the future, we remain committed to deepening our connections, supporting our alma mater, and building a legacy that outlives us. Over the years, OLAOSSA North America has created space for fellowship, growth, and service. We’ve celebrated milestones, supported one another, and given back to the school that helped shape who we are. We’re proud of what we’ve achieved and even more excited about what lies ahead.
If you’re an alumna and haven’t yet joined the North America Chapter, this is your invitation. Join us as we strengthen bonds, build capacity, impact future generations, and create meaning that extends well beyond ourselves.
This website serves as your hub for news, events, alum spotlights, community projects, and ways to stay connected. Whether you graduated recently or many years ago, there’s a place for you here.
Thank you for visiting. We look forward to building something lasting and meaningful together.
Our Vision
Fostering a vibrant network of OLASS Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria alumni in North America, united by a shared commitment to excellence, lifelong learning, and uplifting the legacy of our alma mater.
Who We Are
The idea of Our Lady of Apostles Secondary School, Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria Alumni Association USA-Canada was hatched in 2011 at a Cheesecake Factory dinner with Esther Macauley, Edith Ibuzo, Frankie Alika, and Feyisitan Okulate. Thereafter, Roli Aroyewun resuscitated the idea after some years to establish the alumni in the UK (United Kingdom) and the United States of America. Through several teething stages, we evolved into a non-profit 501(c)3 organization servicing the local communities in various states in the USA, Canada, and the Caribbean Islands.
We made several donations to our alma mater, Our Lady of Apostles Secondary School, Yaba, as well as donations to the Boys and Girls Club USA. We donated hygiene products to the female prisons in Maryland, USA. In 2022, OLA Alumni Association North America collaborated with the OLA Old Girls Association in Nigeria to establish and finance a train-the-trainer program, Mentoring the Confident Girl Child, led by Dr. Abiola Saba of OLA North America. Participants included 43 facilitators (OLA alumni). 100 students, and about 20 executives from both the USA and Nigeria. The Confident Girl Child Program was a huge success and a positive way to build and nurture our girls. Funds from this fundraising gala will be used to sustain this training program, and support the school health clinic, the boarding house, as well as our various community outreach programs in the USA.
