PTA DONATES DRUMS TO SCHOOL (JUNIOR GRAPHIC, DEC 16, PAGE 3)

Parents of Kensington Temple School at Aprabon in Kumasi have donated a set of drums to the school.
The drums, estimated at GH¢550, was also meant to encourage the pupils to develop their potential in gospel music and other extra-curricular activities. 
The Chairman of the Parent-Teacher Association (PTA), Mr Benjamin Frimpong, who made the presentation on behalf of the association, urged the teachers to encourage the pupils to learn the skills of drumming and dancing as a way of unearthing their talents in music.
He said the presentation would also enable the school to participate fully in festive occasions and appealed to the teachers to take good care of the items.
The Headmaster of the school, Mr Philip Num Acheampong, commended the PTA for their gesture, and also pledged to work with the teachers to train the pupils in the art of drumming.
He said it would also encourage them to perform cultural displays and other activities that would sustain the interest of pupils in academic programmes.
