The 2002 Year Group of the Old Achimotans Association (OAA) is gearing up for yet another spectacular Teachers’ Appre­ciation Day in honour of the teachers at the school.

Every year, the year group marking its 20th anniversary of leaving the school is given the baton to host the event to appreciate the kind and hard-working individuals who created an everlasting impact on their lives while in Achimota School.

The 2022 Teachers’ Day Appreciation (TAD) is sched­uled for December 2 on the Achimota School campus and will feature many exciting activities including a thanks­giving service at the Aggrey Chapel and a dinner and awards event to climax the day’s celebration.

Teachers’ Appreciation Day is about interaction with teachers who taught the or­ganising year while they were students. With most of them having retired, it is a good time of going down memory lane with their teachers, the teachers themselves recon­necting, and also the year group supporting their teach­ers in cash and in kind.

Commenting on the up­coming event, the President of the year group, Oheneba Boachie said, “The 2002 year group is excited to be given the chance to appreciate our teachers. Great teachers deserve to be recognised for their hard work and dedi­cation, every day should be teachers’ appreciation day.”

“We remember all that our teachers did for us. They did not just teach us but impacted our lives positively and come December 2, we look forward to making them feel very special,” he added.

In rallying support from Akoras, Senanu Gbormittah said, “Borrowing from the words in our school song, we  remember with affection all we gained. We use this op­portunity to encourage every member of the OAA 2002 Year Group to get involved and par­ticipate actively in the Teach­ers’ Appreciation Day event.”

The organising committee applauds all old students for their contributions and com­mitment towards the event.
