The project, financed by the AngloGold Ashanti (AGA) Obuasi Community Trust Fund, seeks to replace the existing, aging structure, which has posed safety concerns for both educators and pupils.
The School Management Committee expressed heartfelt gratitude, calling the project a long-held dream realized.
Mr. Kwabena Bempong Marfo, the Trust Fund's board chairman, announced that AA Engineering Limited would oversee the construction.

Mr. Anthony Kwenin, the Municipal Coordinating Director, speaking on behalf of the MCE conveyed appreciation for the support from the Trust Fund and AGA. He underscored the Obuasi Municipal Assembly's commitment to fostering development, security, and trade, highlighting the importance of partnerships in achieving these goals.

Baffour Asamoah Agyei, Nana Takyei Mensah, representing the Akrokerri Divisional Stool, members of the trust fund, staff from AngloGold Ashanti, Municipal Director of Education, staff from the Obuasi Methodist Basic School and others.
