4. The joy of using pen
At the initial stage of enrollment, pupils were made to use pencils. It was a wonderful time for them as most children looked forward to scribbling. But moving on to the higher classes, pens were being used.
Everyone who had gone through a primary school in Nigeria must have looked forward to graduating from the nursery section to the primary section in order to use the famous bic or eleganza biro.
5. The exercise book used then
If you attended a primary school in Nigeria, then you must have used the exercise book everyone wanted to get. Onward was trending then and pupils enjoyed tracing out the alphabets of the letter. It was a delightful period as some even found songs to sing each time they saw the word ‘exercise’ There was hardly any pupil who could not spell that word.
