The Agona Swedru branch of Barclays Bank Ghana limited, has renovated a dilapidated classroom of the Agona Asafo Seventh-Day Adventist (SDA) Junior High School (JHS).
The bank spent 600 Ghana Cedis and its staff joined students and teachers of the school to offer communal labour to ensure the early completion of the project.
Mr Charles Adomako, Acting Manager of the bank, who announced this at the inauguration of the facility at Agona Asafo, said that the financial institution painted the Agona Swedru
Divisional Police Headquarters last year.
Mr Ransford Arhin, Headmaster of the JHS, commended the bank for its contribution to the development of education in the area, and appealed to individuals and organisations to assist the
school with logistics and infrastructure.
He called on the Agona East District Assembly to construct a bridge over a stream on a road leading to the school, saying that recently, a downpour washed away the foot bridge on the stream, preventing children from attending school for four days.
Mr Arhin praised Nana Apim Darko, Assistance Headmaster, for soliciting assistance from the bank for the school.
