Impressions of Prempeh Form One boys (Class of 2011)
Monday, October 1, 2007
Prempeh College came alive today as the form ones made their way to the college. As
has been the norm, the cadet boys were there to assist unload the trunks, chop boxes
and mattresses. The masters especially the house masters were also present to admit
the students into the college.
The Red Cross Society welcomed the new boys with a banner on October 1st
It was all joy for most of the students as their dream of making it to the college
has materialised while others gnashed their teeth upon seeing the parents leave them
alone in the school. These boys are yet to experience the unique life at Prempeh
College.
There will be an orientation programme for the first year students on Tuesday and
Wednesday where they will be addressed by the headmaster, Mr Owusu-Achiaw on the
code of conduct at the college. They will also be shown around the college by the
Protocol Prefects and will be addressed by the Senior Prefects on Wednesday.
prempeh.org wish the freshers a successful stay on campus.
The following are some of the impressions of the freshers so far:
The school on reopening day
Name: Isaac Owusu
House: Pearson
Former School: Supreme Saviour J.S.S
Comments: I think Prempeh College is a great school. If I hadn't come to
this school, I would have died. I suggest the school intensifies the
training of quiz contestants so that we can win the 'brilla'.
Name: Randy Owusu Frimpong
House: Pearson
Former School: Supreme Saviour J.S.S.
Comments: This school stands above all other schools in Ghana here. I also
think that this school has all the necessary facilities to make our lives
comfortable.
Name: Saime Chris
House: Opoku Ware
Former School: Calvary Temple A/G
Comments: It's been an exciting school so far. When I was kid, it was dream
to don the green shirt one day. It's a nice place with hygienic facilities
which enhance teaching and learning. The seniors are sociable with the
exception of a few who try to extort which I think is unfair. With the
exception of that , I think the school has come of age and has produced
prominent people in society notable, the President.
