In this age of digital technology, building
your network of people cultured
and trained in a particular environment
is extremely important


STRENGTH IN UNITY

We will foster peace and unity amongst
Charleans worldwide. This is to ensure that the
spirit of our alma mater and the doctrine indulged

SPREAD THE EXPERTISE

Expert knowledge becomes such a joy
to behold when you see it being put
into good use by others less fortunate
or opportune - spread the expetise benevolently


Put A Smile On Mr Mac's Face

We are the products of his dream
if ever one was needed this fraternity network
is the least we can do to show
our appreciation - unity in strength

SCOBA - (St. Charles Old Boys Association)

Welcome fellow Charleans! It's so wonderful to see this community continue to thrive and grow. Even though we may have walked the hallowed halls of our alma mater many years ago, the bonds we formed there remain strong. This alumni group provides us a space to reconnect with old friends, establish new connections, and give back to the school that gave us so much.

Our shared experiences at Osogbo fostered lifelong friendships, shaped our careers, and instilled in us the values of integrity, service, and community. As alumni, we have a responsibility to embody those values and help current and future students benefit from the same enriching opportunities we had. This group allows us to support St.Charles' educational mission through mentorship, fundraising, and volunteering. When we lift each other up, we lift up our alma mater too.

We Charleans are so proud to be a part of this compassionate, engaged community. Let's continue cultivating relationships and bettering our world together as proud Charleans alumni!

About Us

We are SCOBA - those who were fortunate enough to initiate their journey of discovery from the fields of St. Charles' Grammar School in Osogbo. It is our objective here to take you on a journey to discover and appreciate.


History

There is so much to talk about, but there is not enough room to pen all of it out. And, even if that space were unlimited, we would all have a slightly different story to talk about. See what you think of this attempt to summarize all those memories on a single web page.


Stanza

A comprehensive database going back as far as 1965. This ongoing project can only succeed if everyone is willing to play their part. All you have to do is submit your year of graduation if it is missing from our database and we will oblige immediately and update the repository.
