CAPE COAST, GHANA – In a spectacular display of intellect and environmental passion, Flowers Gay Schools has secured a prestigious spot in the grand finale of the inaugural Climate Olympics.
The event, a flagship initiative of the Banyani NGO, was officially inaugurated during an impressive ceremony at the University of Cape Coast today, February 12, 2026. This groundbreaking competition seeks to transform “climate anxiety” into “climate action” by harnessing students’ competitive spirit to foster environmental stewardship.
A Battle of Wits and Sustainability
Out of 16 premier private and public schools across the Cape Coast metropolis, Flowers Gay Schools emerged as a dominant force. The competition brought together academic heavyweights, including University JHS, Mfantsipim JHS, Bliss International School, PEDU JHS, and St. Nicholas School, all vying for the coveted title of 2026 Climate Champions.
The high-profile event was graced by distinguished dignitaries, including a representative of Hon. Issifu Seidu, Minister of State for Climate Change and Sustainability, underscoring the national importance of youth involvement in global environmental goals.
