Massive turnout at Indomie Edufest 2015

Basic school pupils and their parents as well as teachers have thronged the Trade Fair Centre in Accra for this year’s Indomie Edufest.

The annual event saw more than 100 schools from Accra participating in various activities.

Edufest is an academic-based programme that brings pupils from different schools to compete in quiz competition in subjects such as Science, Religious and Moral Education as well as Social Studies.

Mr Shine Akiem Torsoo, Brands Manager at De United Foods Industries Ltd, producers of Indomie Instant Noodles, said the fair afforded the pupils the platform to expose their talents, which is a value that the Indomie brand espouses.

He said the company believes in encouraging children to achieve their full potential in both the academic and social fields and would continue to support the fair.

Nathaniel Ekow Morrison, Chief Executive of Global Media Consult, organisers of the event, said the Indomie Edufest is a major platform to inspire, encourage and invigorate the academic experience among the basic school pupils.

He, therefore, encouraged parents to support their wards to participate in future events in order to unearth the potential in them.

Winners of the various competitions received certificates and Indomie products among others as prizes.

Other competitive activities that took place include spelling competition, speech presentation and poetry recitals.

Unlike the previous editions, this year’s edition added a choreography dance, dance battles, rap shows among others and the various quiz competitions also saw the participants display their prowess in the subject areas.

The participating schools put up impressive performances to the delight of the many who turned up for the event.The reigning hip-life artist, Gasmilla was present to thrill the patrons to his hit song “Telemo.”
