In 2017 Achimota School turned 90. Early in 2016, the OAA Executive Committee began to consider what it could do to support the celebration of this significant milestone. The Committee thought it would be good to give the School a useful legacy project in addition to a great set of programmes to celebrate the milestone. We asked the Headmistress at the time, Mrs Beatrice Adom, what she saw as the most pressing need of the School, for which she would need assistance from the OAA. Her response was that they needed a new Science Block. We were not quite sure if she was serious or not! We suggested to her that we could rehabilitate the old Science Block, but she remained adamant; the School needed a new Science Block in view of a large number of science students. That is how this project began. This short piece is intended to document the effort made by different people to bring
the project to life.
