Morning Glory MCDC recently held its inaugural STEAM Week from March 2–5, engaging students across all three campuses in hands-on activities aimed at fostering creativity, critical thinking, and innovation.
The event, themed “From Curiosity to Innovation”, forms part of the school’s effort to nurture future-ready leaders through a holistic education delivered via both the Ghana Education Service (GES) and Cambridge curricula.
“It is incredibly rewarding to see our learners exploring, experimenting, and creating from such a young age,” said Mrs Ewurabena Neequaye, CEO of Morning Glory MCDC.
“Experiences like STEAM Week help our students build confidence, curiosity, and the skills they need for the future.”
At the Junior and Junior High campuses, learners participated in practical projects including soap production, robotics, coding, and web design.
Through the soap-making activity, students learned about measurement, safety procedures, moulding, sculpting, and branding, before presenting their finished products during a STEAM exhibition.
The week also featured a Mini Hackathon, encouraging students to apply design thinking to real-world challenges. Winners at the Junior Campus were Kirk Damalie and Sefa-Badu Nyamekye (Grade 6), while the Junior High Campus advanced challenge was won by Jeffery Ebo Clinton, Islah Karim, and Curtis Mills (Grade 8).
“Watching the students confidently demonstrate their creations was truly inspiring and showed how powerful hands-on STEAM learning can be,” said Sylvester Asare, Coding and Robotics facilitator.
Meanwhile, younger learners at the Nursery campus explored STEAM concepts through activities such as learning about soil types, exploring fruits and seeds, planting experiments, and creative arts, including collage work and tie-dye.
Morning Glory MCDC, a Grade “A” accredited school recognised by the GES, offers education from Crèche to Junior High, blending the GES and Cambridge curricula with Montessori methods to provide both academic excellence and holistic development.
The school has been preparing learners to become future-ready global leaders for nearly 30 years.
