The 2002 year group of St. Bernadette Soubirous School, Dansoman, on Friday, 9th December, 2022 handed a 3D signage, an LED Screen and 10 tables and 10 swivel chairs to the school.
This was during the school’s Prize Giving Day which also marked the group’s 20th year since completing basic education.
Members of the Association, led by their President, Nana Kwabena Adu Adjei at the donation said: “It is a pleasure for us to come together as a group to support the school that nurtured us and we are extremely glad to do so”
The P.R.O of the association, Kevin Elikem Kofigah, urged other year groups to come ‘home’ and support.
The Headmistress, Mrs. Ernestina Anna Britwum, expressed gratitude to the year group and admonished other year groups to emulate the good example.
“We are so grateful and honestly we wish that others will emulate this. ,” she noted.
The Headmistress mentioned that in the last 10 years she has been at post, she has noticed a rise in the rate at which the alumni were supporting the school and urged the phenomenon to continue.
“I have been here for the past 10 years and initially, we were not getting the alumni to come and support, the story has changed in recent times. The CCTV cameras you see and the refurbished washrooms for the kindergarten are projects embarked upon by old students.”, she said.
She prayed for God’s blessings and replenishment for the group for the kind gesture.
