The festival which was celebrated in grand style at the school premises in Accra attracted various artisans across the ten regions in Ghana to showcase their latest products in order to help promote Ghanaian culture and locally manufactured products in the country.
Speaking to News Ghana, the Principal of Liberty American School Mr. Christopher Alkins, entreated Ghanaians to be proud of their rich cultural heritage especially in the face of today’s technological advancement, adding that, they also develop positive characters towards made in Ghana goods in order to promote the Ghanaian culture.
According to him, even though the School, is a Christian educational institution that runs the American curriculum, they still inculcate the Ghanaian culture in the pupil.
Moreso, the cultural festival granted the pupils to exhibit the Ghanaian culture from the various regions through poetry, music and drama to the admiration of the gathering.
The Principal advised the youth to discard the idea of migrating to foreign lands just to seek greener pastures.
This, he said, should rather endeavour to be entrepreneurs in their own country in order to become economically independent.
Miss Ghana 1st Runner Up, 2015 Afua Asieduwaa Akrofi also seized the opportunity to grace the occasion.
Liberty American School (LAS) is an international school, focused on building a highly competitive younger generation who can effectively adjust to emerging trends while guided by eternal truth.
