Hohoe (V/R), Jan. 23, GNA – An 18-unit three
storey classroom block and a two-storey boys’ dormitory have been commissioned
and handed over to Hohoe E.P. Senior High School (HEPSS) in the Hohoe
Municipality of Volta Region.
The dormitory has two box rooms, ironing and
washrooms, while the classroom block has common rooms for tutors, which is
expected to enhance teaching and learning and reduce congestion.
Mr. Franklin Amesimeku, Headmaster of the
School, who expressed gratitude to government for the support, said the
facilities have been delivered timeously.
“The facilities will help us in decongesting
the boys’ dormitory and overcrowded classes which have been a worry to us for
some time now,” he said.
However, he appealed for pavement blocks to be
laid at the school’s frontage and walkways of the new dormitory for effective
control and supervision.
The Headmaster said it was the hope of the
School that a girls’ dormitory would also be provided.
While appealing to the Municipal Assembly for
the provision of mono desks, he indicated that the School lacked assembly and
dining halls.
Mr. Andrews Teddy Ofori, the Hohoe Municipal
Chief Executive (MCE), told the gathering that the Assembly and Government were
focused on completing projects inherited from past governments.
He said the Assembly has put in place measures
for the completion of some uncompleted projects started in HEPSS since 2006, notably;
the construction of an administration block, a computer laboratory and a Visual
Arts Department.
