The company, as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has painted the school, converted an existing urinal from the normal Kumasi Ventilated Improved Pit (KVIP) model to the standard Water Closet for the teachers (two rooms), fixed ceramic squat style for the Junior High School (JHS) students, and tiled the floor.

They also provided three teachers’ tables and chairs for JHS 1 to 3 classrooms, provision of three whiteboards, three cupboards as well as dustbins as a way of supporting learning activities of the school.

Mrs. Sabina Blay-Baissie, Human Resource Officer of Conship – Takoradi Branch, at the unveiling of the plaque to symbolise the support of the company, said Conship Takoradi CSR team identified this need when they paid a visit to the school, hence, the assistance.
