INFRASTRUCTURAL DEVELOPMENT: PTA DONATES TO FGGC

As part of efforts geared towards easing the usual congestion experienced by students of Federal Government Girls College, Akure, during meal period, the Parents Teachers Association has donated a 1500 capacity Dinning Hall to the school. 

According to the Chairman of the  PTA, Comrade Eniola Olushola, the project which gave the school an infrastructural boost was completed within one and a half year. He stressed that food is essential to the growth of children and eating in an unconducive atmosphere may tamper with the assimilation level of a child. 

He said the project would help complement the school's efforts on infrastructural development and consequently praised the school Director and Principal for her developmental strides in upholding the school's standard.

He credited the success of the project to the supportive roles of the Director and Principal and particularly the parents and guardians who contributed significantly to the actualisation of the lofty  project. 

The new Dinning Hall which is equipped with washing hand facilities, tables and chairs was  inherited from the past PTA Executives, but had to be restructured to effectively served the students.

Speaking at the official commissioning of the hall, the Iresi of Osi Land in Akure North Local Government, His Royal Majesty Oba David Okunato, congratulated the Association and the School Management for completing the befitting project, adding that success and progress can only be achieved under a conducive and cooperative atmosphere. 

The Monarch who inaugurated the facility charged the beneficiaries to make judicious use of the facility so that it could stand the test of time. 

In her remarks, the Director/Principal of the school, Mrs Adenike Idiat Lawal, described the PTA of the School as unique in their strides to contribute meaningfully to the development of the school and urged them to continue in that direction. 

While noting that the project and various contributions of the PTA will remain indelible marks, she enjoined the parents to be more cooperative with the school on its rules and regulations, especially on zero tolerance to examination malpractices, warning that disciplinary actions would be taken against any student found wanting. 

She further advised parents to always  discourage their children from bringing prohibited items, such as, phones, laptops, and others to the school, as the school will not compromise on its laid down rules and regulations.  

She revealed that the performance of the students in the last Junior Secondary School Examination was laudable, just as the performance of students who participated in the last Joint Admission and Matriculation Board examinations recorded outstanding success. 

The Dinning Hall project was among the landsliding projects donated to the school recently. Others include: solar powered light, digging of borehole, mounting of CCTV, renovation of existing building and employment of PTA Teachers and other non-teaching staff.
