Some of the above awards were a joy not only for Nesto College, but also for Oyo City and Oyo State.
On the 16th of February 1999, Nesto College was accorded recognition as one of the pilot schools for the Teaching and Learning of French Language in Nigeria by the French Embassy.
This is because French Language is the second official language in the school and it is compulsory for all students.
In April, 1999, the school was invited to Alliance Francaise Ikoyi Lagos for French Cultural Week. The Principal, Mrs. O.A. Olaniran, the three French Teachers, Messers Paul Adimi & S. O. Adeleke, Miss F. Ibikunle and some students represented the school.
In May same year, Mr Paul Adimi was sent to Paris for a month course in French by the French Embassy to improve the teaching and learning of French language in Nesto College.
The Second place trophy of the National Science Project exhibition organized by STAN (Science Teachers’ Association Of Nigeria) to mark the 44th National Conference which was held in Abuja from 17th to 23rd August 2003 was given a rousing civic reception by the Kabiyesi Oba Lamidi Olayiwola Adeyemi the III, the Alaafin of Oyo on Wednesday 3rd September 2003.
Also on the 4th of December 2003, the Honourable Commissioner for Education for the State Alhaji Dr Jelili Amoloye gave the students, teachers and the proprietors a civic reception and the Commissioner’s handshake.
