In a heartwarming display of gratitude and admiration, Junior High School 2 students of IBS Educational Complex, Asankrangwa, came together to honour their beloved class teacher, Sir Prince Ayerakwa, affectionately known as Pazion. The event took place during their vacation day on April 17, 2024, within the confines of their classroom.
Representing their peers, Keziah Forson, Rhoda Armah, Christian Asante, Kelvin Mensah, Mustapha Issa, and Prince Toppoh took the stage to present a plaque to Sir Prince Ayerakwa. They expressed profound appreciation for his generosity, guidance, and unwavering support throughout their academic journey. Rhoda Armah, speaking on behalf of her classmates, emphasized that beyond Sir Prince's exceptional teaching abilities, his compassionate nature truly set him apart. She recounted instances where Sir Prince went above and beyond, such as providing water and the local delicacy "Aleletu" to the entire class, gestures that were deeply cherished by all.
Furthermore, Rhoda highlighted Sir Prince's role as a mentor, noting his firm but compassionate approach in guiding them back to the right path whenever they strayed. The students unanimously agreed that they felt blessed and fortunate to have crossed paths with such an exceptional educator.
In a touching moment, Sir Prince Ayerakwa graciously accepted the citation from his students, expressing his heartfelt appreciation for their gesture. He admitted to being genuinely surprised by their thoughtful act, as he had initially been approached by some students requesting his photograph for a seemingly unrelated purpose.
Sir Prince Ayerakwa took the opportunity to impart wisdom to his students, sharing a poignant quote he cherished from the movie Titanic: "Living a meaningful life is not about being rich, popular, or highly educated. Life is much more than that. Go out and explore, and you will find out that it's about love, leaving a mark, and making each day count." He emphasized that the gesture of appreciation from his students was more valuable than any material possession, and the memories created would remain etched in his heart forever, even beyond his tenure at the school and his eventual departure from this world.
The ceremony concluded with warm embraces and words of gratitude exchanged between Sir Prince Ayerakwa and his students, solidifying the bond of respect, admiration, and affection that exists within the IBS Educational Complex community.
