Galaxy International School has organized a scholarship examination for over one thousand students drawn from across the country with the aim of offering a range of scholarship packages to brilliant students to study in the school.
The scholarship examination which is organized yearly is part of the school’s corporate social responsibility aimed at offering opportunity not only to brilliant but needy students, but all students with the zeal to pursuing their academic dreams.
This year’s exam was special because it was held in the school’s new ultra-modern school building.
It offered a great opportunity for students, their parents and teachers to acquaint themselves with the Galaxy world.
Mr. Yusuf Temizkan, the MD of the school, had hinted during the school’s science fair, that the scholarship package was meant to open doors of opportunities to brilliant students who would want to have access to the world class environment in which the school is hosted.
Esther Fummey a JHS3 student, from the Ghana Atomic Energy Commission Basic School (GAEC), who participated in the examination, said she was motivated by her parent’s contribution towards her education and needed to get the scholarship to take off the burden of her parents.
She was happy to participate in the exams which she said has prepared her made to take part in any other competitive exams.
A retired civil servant, Mr. Kofi Baido, who accompanied his daughter to the venue, said that the opportunity given the students is enormous.
“They will explore your facilities, it’s my daughters’ first time of seeing such a glamorous school and I’m happy for her, she will never forget this experience”.
Mrs. Dorothy Kwarteng-Adjei, a mathematics teacher in the school, indicated that the scholarship examination is a great opportunity for needy but brilliant students.
The examination is open to class six (6) and JHS 3 students every year. Successful students would be admitted into JHS1 and SHS1 respectively.
The next scholarship examination would be conducted at the end of the 2016-2017 academic year.
