The students have to go to a nearby stream to fetch water every day.\u201d This he said affects academic work.<\/p>\n<p>The headmaster also acknowledged that although government had provided the school with modern science equipment, they were not in use due to the absence of a science lab.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have only one room which is used as physics, chemistry and biology labs so we need more rooms,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>By: Efua Idan Osam\/citifmonline.com\/Ghana<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Authorities of the Presbyterian Senior High School in Mampong Akuapem are appealing to government to construct a dining and an assembly hall for the school.
