Spearheaded by the 1975, 1995, 2005, and 2015 year groups, the celebrations highlighted the strong bond between past and present students and the spirit of giving back to their Alma Mater.
As part of their legacy projects, the year groups renovated the school’s washrooms, constructed a new walkway, and donated chairs, among other items, to support teaching and learning in the school.
The celebrations began with a soft launch on Friday, June 27, 2025, setting the tone for months of activities that kept both old and current students engaged.
On Saturday, August 2, 2025, a Skills Training, Career and Mentorship Fair was held to inspire and guide students toward career excellence.

The following week, on Wednesday, September 17, the spotlight shifted to the Legacy Project Joint Handing Over Ceremony, where AGOSA officially presented their renovation and donation works to the school.
In line with promoting social responsibility, Monday, September 22 was dedicated to Menstrual Hygiene Education and Distribution of Sanitary Pads, equipping students with essential knowledge and support.
The festivities picked up tempo on Friday, September 26 with an Akwaaba Karaoke, Records, and Bonfire Night, which drew excitement and rekindled nostalgic memories of school days.
