In the Ashanti Region, the young women of Afia Kobi Serwaa Ampem Girls Senior High School's engineering club are not just reaching for the stars; they're engineering their path to get there. Their recent feat? The girls have constructed a model aircraft designed to soar the skies, fulfilling security and data collection roles. What they have done is not just a story about a model plane taking flight. It's about breaking barriers and inspiring a generation. In a field where women have been historically underrepresented, these students are proving that gender is no boundary to innovation and expertise.  Their aircraft, more than a testament to their technical skills, represents hope and opportunity. It's a glimpse into a future where Ghanaian women lead in the aviation and aerospace industries. The engineering club has become a beacon of hands-on learning, bringing theory to life and showcasing how practical experience can ignite a passion for learning. The story takes a grander leap as the Ministry eyes a partnership with a US-based institution, aiming to lay down international collaboration bridges in Aeronautics and Aerospace engineering. This potential affiliation isn't just an exchange of knowledge; it's an investment in the young women who will one day be at the forefront of engineering innovation. The aircraft, while a model, symbolizes something much more significant: the ascent of female engineers from Ghana on the world stage. The girls of Afia Kobi Serwaa Ampem SHS are not just students; they are the pioneers of tomorrow, with the power to lift their community and their country to new heights.
