The Dodi-Papase Senior High Technical School (DOPASS) in the Kadjebi District of the Oti Region is set to observe this year’s Students Representative Council (SRC) Week with a line-up of educational, social and health-based activities.
The week-long celebration will commence on Wednesday, February 11, with a clean-up exercise, cadet drill and inter-house games designed to promote discipline, teamwork and environmental cleanliness among the students.
On Thursday, February 12, students will take part in an inter-house quiz, a health walk and a health screening exercise to enhance academic excellence and encourage healthy living.
Mr Sitsofe Amemor, SRC Patron and Assistant Headmaster in charge of Academic Affairs, disclosed this in an interview with the Ghana News Agency (GNA) at Kadjebi.
He said Friday, February 13, would feature the “DOPASS Goes Professional” programme, which includes career guidance sessions, a Miss and Mr DOPASS pageant and a float through the principal streets of Dodi-Papase to showcase the school to the public.
According to him, the celebration will climax on Saturday, February 14, with a grand durbar on the school campus.
The durbar is expected to draw several dignitaries, including the Oti Regional Minister, Mr John Kwadwo Gyapong; the Oti Regional Director of Education, Mrs Irene Jacquelinda Attabra; the Kadjebi District Chief Executive, Dr Sam Issaka Suraj; the Member of Parliament for Akan Constituency, Mr Yao Gomado; traditional authorities; education officials; and other stakeholders.
Mr Amemor said the SRC Week aims to foster unity, leadership and responsible citizenship among students while strengthening the relationship between the school and the neighbouring communities.
He expressed optimism that the activities would be well patronised and appealed to parents, old students and the public to support the programme to ensure its success.
