Koforidua, Dec. 25, GNA – The River of Blessing Academy (ROBA) in Koforidua, Eastern Region, has made significant strides in its academic journey in 2025 as part of its commitment to actively engage in the learning development of children.
Dr Abba Hughes-Lartey, Executive Director of ROBA, attributed the school’s achievements to its enhanced personalised learning approach, particularly in supporting children on the learning spectrum to enable every child to thrive academically.
Speaking during the school’s Christmas Concert held at the International Central Gospel Church (ICGC), Dr Hughes-Lartey announced that the school had been awarded Centre of Excellence and Best School in the Eastern Region by Opportunity International.
She expressed gratitude to teachers, parents and the management board, describing them as the heartbeat of the school, and commended them for their dedication and commitment to excellence.
Dr Hughes-Lartey also thanked stakeholders for their continuous support and donations, urging them to remain committed to the school’s growth and progress.


The Christmas concert, themed “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat,” was a two-day programme that began with performances by preschool pupils, who showcased their talents through drama presentations.
Highlights of past activities, including self-directed learning initiatives and Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) projects, were screened as a prelude to theatrical and aesthetic performances by the upper-year students.
The event was climaxed with a dramatic performance depicting the biblical story of Joseph, from his imprisonment to his rise as second-in-command in Egypt, illustrating themes of perseverance, leadership and destiny.
The River of Blessing Academy operates a globally recognised Cambridge curriculum, which is flexible and aligned with both local and international educational standards.
