Some of you guys talk as though you live in cocoons. Does the school even have the resources to provide laptops for the school's computer lab, let alone buying laptops for individual students? So quick to say in America, in ...

You better compare yourselves to Togo and Nigeria and stop the noise. Come to America and see laws work and com ...

Give them laptops? Which model, please? The one made in Wiamoase?
Have you( GH) produced any laptops to be given to them ? You cannot give what you don't have.
AFTER ALL, THAT COMPANY IS A MEGA JOHN MAHAMA AND THE NTAFOUR LOOT & SHARE PLAN
Ghanaians can talk! Instead of applauding the school authorities, listen to what some ppl are saying, as if they live in a different world. In the recent past (I am still quite young), we used to get an egg from our parents a ...

You are absolutely right Big J. It is the babies with sharp teeth who are making noise
Since you think it is rather expedient to offer the kids laptops, why don't you get them some?
Drive there one of these days and present the laptops to these kids.
They will greatly appreciate it.
The head master had noth ...

Do you know what the kids need better than the school authorities who live in the community with them? For all you know families there can't even buy a whole chicken on Christmas day. This could even be an encouragement for ...

Hmmmm
Ma dear we're talking abt a village sku whr even capitation grant doesn't get. Who shd buy da laptop? The head? Or the poor teachers with the meagre allowance as salary?? At times we shd sound realistic and objective
Oh Master, you should have given them some kid of learning materials. Are you training them to come and chew chicken?
He want to be responsible for the chicken lives
Learning materials like what? Can't they learn anything from the chicken? Don't they study agric and biology of farm animals?

What is wrong with this? In America sometimes your employer offer you Gift Certificate to KFC, so what is the difference? You people act as if you got something going on in that country. Don't you know the headmaster is tryin ...

What's the difference???? The difference is that: 1. The kids are not employees of the head teacher. 2. You don't go to KFC the buy life chicken!
Idiot, learn the premise of your argument before you start to text.
Please what do you think the headmaster should have given them, and why?
"Idiot, learn the premise of your argument before you start to text."
See who z talking. U shd b ashamed of ursef. Who shd buy da laptop?! The teachers, using their little salary. These teachers r trying to do sumtin worthy and u there pouring insults. It is a typical Akan community and as ur n ...

GH PEOPLE TALK AS IF THEY ARE DOING SOMETHING BETTER. THE BASIC FACTOR OF DEVELOPMENT, LAW, IS EVEN NONEXISTENT, YET THEY TALK AS IF THEY ARE DOING ANYTHING.
I disagree with those castigating the school's innovation. Obviously it is the end of year and the fowls will be more useful for our day party. Very very important for the rural school kids. It will rather encourage others to ...

Congrats, at least the headmaster us encouraging Agriculture
One school child, one fowl.
Kwaku Sakyi Addo, don't deny that, how did the school authorities got the fowls from, if they bought them then why can't they used the money to buy exercise books for them, (akoko nkwan) shame.
If parents are smart they will start a small poultry farming.
Let's not take prizes given to this children out of context because the authority might awarded what that community cherish as a mean to motivate them to work harder. We should rather congratulate them at least to encourage o ...

Majority of those commenting negatively on the awards haven't taught before and have spent almost all their lives in the cities.

I think Story books should have been ideal to impact more knowledge in them than Fowls which they will enjoy only in a day.
l support the prizes given to the best performers in that school. ln our culture, a gift of a household bird or animal teaches the recipient to rear it and make a capital out of it to support you financially. We must encourag ...

Very novelistic award. These teachers in Ghana.
Guys, it is term 3 and you all know that it is ''our day'' season.
What's wrong with that. The most important thing is they emerged victorious and that should be encouraged and not this unprofessional media propaganda.
in fact the school authorities have made me proud. those who are against this move by the authorities do not know the value of fowls in rural communities. Do you even know how they came by the fowls? Some even play soccer wit ...

That is a smart move on the part of the head to bring the school into the lamp light. I am sure some of you making negative comments don't even know where the school is. Besides the chicken could be a good motivation to enhan ...

Dont judge. Do u know the school? Its deprived the students write on slates the headmaster knows what he us doing he knows how to motivate his students.
I bet u, with kids, chicken and eggs make them learn harder and pay attention while in class...try that with your kids
I think the children should be provided with some educational materials. This can be done anyone who wishes to do so.
It would be good of when such stories are written more information (contact) can be provided so one can ...

Fowls?...really. smh
Hahaha
It's part of their story they will share in the future.
dis school authority are lacking common sense
Those who are not in support should buy the storybooks and the laptop computers and send it to them as additional award.
You have donated nothing yet insulting others who have done their part. Why?
Improvisation in any form makes the best teacher ; excellent job done
Ghanaians just like making noise I don't know why? People can cannot buy one fullscap note for their children but expect poor skull to buy laptop for skull children. What all is wrong with what they gave them?We criticize as ...

stupid journalist will pick something somewhere and make it a news.How do u know if they present something in addition to what u see?jimmy!!!
In Zimbabwe, u can pay school fees with a goat. This is a new beginning for Ghana
The chicken can be raised and the egg produce canbe sold or more chick's can also raised and have more chicken they can be sold and the money can sometimes help pay for school fees
Just as dey can establish bougar MIT factory in north then akukor factory needs to b establish there. To aiid 1. Pupil 1 fowl project
next ur by this time if these children take judicious care of these fowls do u know how profitable it's gonna be to them...I therefore challenge any of these students to care for his or her fowl till next year...
I see nothing wrong with the gusture. Ghanaians talk too much. At least these kids are rewarded with something practical. For God's sake, the would eat nkwanpa for once. Leave them alone.
Not all issues must be condemned or laughed at. Am much impressed by the way some teachers are going out of their ways to encourage learning in our deprived schools. We should rather shame and laugh at the GES and MoE but not ...
