THE 1981 YEAR GROUP ORGANIZES MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS PROGRAMME

The 1981 Year Group of ZICO in the UK, in partnership with the Besstel Foundation, will organize a Mental Health Awareness Programme for students and staff on 29th October, 2026.

The Leader of the team, Madam Hilda Amewu, noted that, "Mental health is about our emotional, psychological, and social wellbeing. It affects how we think, feel, and behave, as well as how we handle stress, relate to others, and make decisions."

She said good mental health enabled individuals to function effectively, build healthy relationships, and contribute meaningfully to society.

Madam Amewu, who is also a member of the Health Committee of the Zion College Old Students Association, explained that the programme would strengthen support systems, ensure early intervention, and promote sustained wellbeing. "This will ultimately boost students' confidence and academic outcomes," she added.

✅Programme Objectives:
- To create awareness and reduce stigma around mental health.

- To provide a safe space for open and honest discussions.

- To equip students and staff with knowledge and practical tools for support.

✅Expected Impact:
- Build resilience and improve emotional regulation among students.

- Enhance teacher support and overall wellbeing.

- Foster a positive school culture where mental health is prioritized.

✅CALL TO ACTION
All NAFRICANS, especially those who are medical and health practitioners, are called upon to support this important initiative with their expertise.

NAFRICANS, Arise and Shine Now!

90 YEARS. ONE GREAT LEGACY.

As we approach 90 years, we celebrate not just a number, but the story of Zion College, the first secondary school in the Volta Region.

There is still much to build, much to restore, and much to be proud of.

This anniversary is a reminder that our history is worth preserving, and our future is worth building together.

Full updates coming soon.
90 Years. One Alma Mater. One Future.

🎉 Congratulations, Team ZICO! 💙💛

The NAFRICANS fraternity proudly celebrates Zion College (ZICO) for an outstanding performance in the National Science & Maths Quiz Regional Qualifiers, securing 45 points to finish ahead of Abor SHS (31 points) and Sokode SHTS (22 points) and booking a place in the next stage.

This is a remarkable achievement, but the journey is far from over. Greater challenges lie ahead, and we believe this is only the beginning of an even bigger story.

We commend the Global President of NAFRICANS, Prof. Mawuli Sallar, for his personal pledge of GH¢1,000 to motivate the team as they continue their campaign.

We also invite all NAFRICANS, friends of ZICO, corporate bodies, and well-wishers to rally behind our team with their encouragement and support. Together, we can inspire our champions to reach even greater heights.

The journey continues. The dream is alive. Go ZICO! Make us proud! 💙🏆

NAFRICANS AT THE STAKEHOLDERS' MEETING

It was a great honour and pleasure to see NAFRICANS well represented at the recent Stakeholders' Meeting, aptly dubbed "The Lalana Accord."

Representing the National Executive Committee of the Zion College Old Students' Association (ZICO) were Prof. Mawuli Sallar, Global President and Mr. Isaac Apetorgbor, Global Vice President.

The Academic Committee was represented by Prof. Kofi Quashigah, Chairman; Madam Doris Aseye Attricki; and Mrs. Joyce Eku Wilson-Tagoe. Also present was Mr. Gameli Attipoe, Board Member.

Other NAFRICANS who were present to support included WO1 King Hubert Gameli (Rtd) and Madam Hilda Amewu.

We were also privileged to have NAFRICANS from the Ghana Education Service in attendance, lending their invaluable support to the deliberations.

We were equally delighted to see our Old Students who are currently serving on the staff of ZICO. It is truly a privilege to give back to one's alma mater through teaching and service. May our NAFRICANS on staff continue to give of their best, shine brightly, and uphold the good name of ZICO, lifting it to even greater heights.
