The last quarter of 2018 however was centered around the Community Quiz Finals. In July 2018 we had the first rounds of our annual event. We zoned our 12 communities in 3 zones and each community put forward 3 of their best contestants to compete. The subjects of the quiz were English, Math and Science with the questions being formulated by the Ghana Education Service. The winner of each zone then came together to compete in the finals held in Awutu-Bereku on the 6thof December 2018. It was a huge event where all of our 600 girls attended with supporters coming along from their communities as well as local officials and GGG stakeholders. This event was also a good moment for the girls to let their voices be heard so we used the opportunity to do a parade through the streets which got a lot of attention! The big winner was Bontrase but we are proud of all who contested and thankful for all the support we received. Please see the video in the link below for a good overview of the day. Enjoy!
