The markets have now spilled over onto the 1st girls’ secondary school in West Africa and it is now being proposed that the school should move from its home since 1865. Do we even understand the implicit message we are sending with such a proposal? It is my hope that this proposal will remain such - just a proposal and that this very important part of our Sierra Leonean heritage be preserved and respected. Since the 1860s, Annie Walsh, a trailblazer in educating women in West Africa continues to positively impact everyday life in Sierra Leone and beyond through educating strong , competent, self-confident and successful women. It is time for the Powers that be to show Annie Walsh the respect this noble institution is due by enforcing the laws as regards to street vending, particularly around the AWMS. It is time for authorities to show that they stand on the side of education and support the school in its bid to carry out its most important mandate of educating young girls.

Is education less significant now that a school of this nature with the historical value it carries, would be levelled for the sake of a market. The government should be discussing how the education offered at the school can be enhanced further while preserving the historical value of The AWMS.
The government must therefore reconsider what they are proposing and consider the meaning behind such an act. I'm sure there are other places markets can be put up.

Modern trend world wide is to locate commercial undertakings on the outskirts of cities and the Sierra Leone government, town planners and developers should follow the trend.

The current AWMS location is no longer feasible and condusive to learning .
My recommendations are that the school is relocated to the Western part of Freetown AND the original school site on Kissy Rd be preserved for historical and tourism purposes. It should not be demolished.

We are telling our kids that education is not important, get a tray and start selling. Our president respects the sentiments of traders more than school kids, what a shame.
