Demonstrating a strong commitment to community service, <\/span>The Roman Ridge School (TRRS)<\/span><\/b> recently delivered books collected through its <\/span>TRRS Book Drive<\/span><\/b> to two beneficiary schools: Afife Dziehe R.C. Basic School in the Ketu North Municipality of the Volta Region, and Ashalaja M\/A \u201c2\u201d Basic School in the Ga South Municipality.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Organised by the Class of 2027 as part of the School\u2019s World Literacy Day Week activities, the Book Drive aimed to promote literacy and encourage a sustained love of reading among young learners.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

On Thursday, 5 November, a TRRS delegation comprising six students\u2014accompanied by Ruth Tetteh and Richard Yeboah\u2014visited Afife Dziehe R.C. Basic School to present the collected books. The following day, the delegation travelled to Ashalaja M\/A \u201c2\u201d Basic School for the second presentation. These visits provided an opportunity not only to donate books, but also for students from all three schools to interact, share experiences, and reflect on the importance of reading and access to learning resources.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The initiative also builds on TRRS\u2019s earlier community-service partnership with both institutions. Earlier this year, as part of an ICT access initiative championed by the Class of 2026, TRRS donated 16 computers to each school to support their efforts in strengthening digital learning.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Book Drive represents a meaningful second phase of this engagement, progressing from providing access to technology to supporting access to literature and learning materials. It also reflects the School\u2019s belief that impactful community service is not merely about giving, but about building relationships, creating opportunities, and empowering young people through education.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For the participating TRRS students, the visits offered a valuable opportunity to witness the impact of their collective efforts firsthand and to understand how small acts of service can drive meaningful change.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

TRRS is grateful to the leadership, teachers, and students of both Afife Dziehe R.C. Basic School and Ashalaja M\/A \u201c2\u201d Basic School for welcoming the delegation so warmly. The School looks forward to nurturing these relationships and exploring further opportunities for collaboration and shared learning. Through initiatives such as the Book Drive, TRRS continues to encourage its students to live out the values of service, responsibility, and community beyond the classroom.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
