On Saturday, 13th of January 2018, an aura of excitement enveloped the Great Hall of JHC on Saturday 13th January as students and staff marked the annual Formal Lunch. After the three-course meal, the guest speaker, Barrister Nkem Itanyi (a parent) delivered an inspiring lecture on the theme of the day which is “It’s My Choice” . The lecture was interactive and Mrs Itanyi spoke eloquently on critical issues that affect teenagers such as Boyfriend/Girlfriend relationships, Decision-making, Social media effects, Peer pressure and academic distractions. After the lecture the whole school gave a resounding standing ovation which was followed by the Head Boy and Head Girl giving a vote of thanks and presentation of a gift on behalf of the school.
The annual JHC Xmas Concert for 2017 was held on Sunday, 3rd of December 2017. The Great Hall was filled up with guests and parents with an attendance of more than 600 which is certainly more than the previous year. This year was also different in that we had local schools collaborating with JHC students in producing a few musical items. The audience enjoyed the late afternoon of musical festivities.
James Hope College, Agbor and its student, Aroesiri Enameguono were both honoured by the Delta State Government with the Award of Excellence at the Unity Hall, Government House Asaba on Thursday for their outstanding performance at the recently concluded 2016/2017 Basic Education Certificate Examinations (BECE) in Delta State.
James Hope College Agbor, founded and sponsored by the Jim Ovia Foundation, received the award for the School with the Best BECE Results for the 2016/2017 BECE in Delta State while Aroesiri Enameguono, a brilliant student of James Hope College was awarded the Overall Best Student in the 2016/2017 BECE in Delta State.

Mr. Chiedu Ebie congratulated the awardees and spoke on the importance of excellent educational standards. Her Excellency, Dame Edith Okowa concluded the event by belabouring the importance of education and its responsibility for all members of society to uphold. Students were also encouraged to strive to perform better and to do their best.
There was a flurry of excitement in the Great Hall on Thursday, 16th of November 2017, as students and teachers sat anxiously waiting for the STEM FAIR to commence. The STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) FAIR was a very glorious event, as invited schools in Agbor like Calvary Group of Schools, Baptist Girls High School, Staff Model College, Ime-Obi Secondary School and Omumu Mixed Secondary School participated in various riveting activities such as the Quiz. The students were eager to showcase their inspiring projects, which they had worked very hard on for over a month. Each department that makes up STEM, Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Mathematics, Design and Technology, Agriculture and Art, had exhibits. The Biology section exhibited a stanching model of the DNA made from marshmallows, gummy bear and liquorice twists.
The Chemistry group showed us some fascinating facts about Graphene, Diamond and Buckminsterfullerene. The Physic group pleasantly shocked all and sundry as they created a vacuum cleaner and warship. The Maths group made cool 3-D shapes out of cardboard. The Design and Technology group made soaps, a grenade and an awesome water dispenser. Finally, the Art and Design groups displayed some wonderful pieces of art and craft, such as leather bags, yarn on board works, leather hats and lanterns, all of which were created by JHC students. There were also some interesting Science magic tricks such as converting water into wine and vice versa, elephant tooth pastes and fire ignition without a lighter which were conducted by Eden Erazua and Chimere Ezeiruakwu.
