Ancilla Primary & Junior High School (AP&JHS) emerged Champions in the 2025 Junior Sharks Quiz, a prestigious academic competition for basic schools in Ghana, held at the Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT) Hall in Adabraka as they represented the Ga East Municipality.
The Junior Sharks Quiz is an annual nationwide academic competition organised by the Academic Talent Development Programme (ATDP). It assesses pupils in four key areas: Literacy, Numeracy, Social Literacy, Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics
(STEM).
Nyantah and Diamond Kish
Over 100 schools registered for the competition. Ancilla competed among the top 24 schools selected by the Quiz Board and advanced through the knockout stages to the final round to emerge as Junior Sharks Champions.
The following students represented the school in this year’s contest: Ama Nyantah – Literacy Contestant, Ariel Naatu – Numeracy Contestant, Diamond Kish – STEM Contestant, Emmanuel Asante – STEM/Numeracy Contestant and Worlanyo Awadzi – Social Literacy Contestant.
The Headmistress of Ancilla Primary & Junior High School, Rev. Sister Susanna N. Amuh, expressed her quiet confidence and pride in her team since their goal was the ultimate crown.
She further acknowledged the exceptional abilities of the contestants- some of whom she personally taught in primary and praised their brilliance and consistency.
“This victory serves as a reminder that greatness comes through preparation, discipline, and belief in one’s potential,” she said.
She advised the contestants and entire pupils to stay focused, committed, and never stop striving for excellence.
According to Sister Susanna, “This year’s edition was particularly special as it coincided with the school’s Silver Jubilee celebration- 25 years: A Journey of Knowledge, Love and Service.”
”The entire Ancilla staff were filled with joy, pride, and gratitude,” she noted.

About 120 golfers from clubs across Ghana participated in an 18-hole competition, dubbed ‘MTN 30th Anniversary CEO Invitational Golf Tournament’ held at the Achimota Golf Club on Saturday.
At the end of the hectic day, Frederick Semenu Duvor won the Men’s Group A event with 39 points, while Julienne Afi claimed the Ladies’ Group A title with the same score.
Yaw Mireku Jnr. won the Men’s Group B with an impressive 45 points, while Kous Louanges Mang took the Ladies’ Group B title with 38 points.
Kofi Mangesi won Men’s Group C with 40 points while Elorm R. Akuash Bonney claimed the Ladies’ version with 42 points.
In the Seniors Division, Jan Vogel emerged winner of the men’s category with 39 gross, while Helen Appah topped the ladies’ category with 44 gross.
Addressing participants, the company’s Board Chairman, Mr Ishmael Yamson, urged the company to approach its next phase with the same resilience, discipline and determination that have defined its success over the past three decades.
He drew a striking parallel between the game of golf and MTN Ghana’s three-decade journey, describing both as long games in which success depends less on one spectacular moment than on consistency, patience, judgment and the ability to recover from setbacks.
He said, golf had taught him a lesson that extended far beyond the fairways, thus, a round cannot be won on the first hole.
In golfing terms, he said, MTN Ghana had encountered its share of regulatory bunkers, competitive hazards and unexpected storms that had forced the company to pause, reassess and change its approach.
But those challenges, he suggested, were part of the journey rather than reasons to abandon it.
