SCHOOL HOLDS GRADUATION (PAGE 20)

THE King of Glory Early Childhood Development Centre at Adweso, a suburb of Koforidua in the New Juaben Municipality, has held its graduation ceremony during which 90 kids from the nursery and the kindergarten passed out.
The ceremony that was on the theme: “Developing Healthy Mind in a Healthy Environment; Our Collective Responsibility”, was the highlight of the 16th anniversary of the establishment of the centre.
Addressing a large number of parents and other dignitaries who patronised the function, the proprietress of the institution, Mrs Georgina Obeng, entreated parents to take good care of their children in their formative years.
She said the centre, which was set up in 1992 with only two children, now had a population of 200. Mrs Obeng attributed the institution’s steady growth to its ability to turn out good products for the best basic schools in the municipality.
The Deputy Eastern Regional Director of Environmental Health Services Department, Mr Edward Shardey, who was the guest speaker at the function, dwelt extensively on environmental cleanliness.
He urged parents to ensure that their children washed their hands with soap before eating, after school, or after playing with pets.
Mr Shardey also implored adults to wash their hands after visiting public places of convenience, shaking hands with people at hospitals, and after funerals or festivals.
