Honoring a Legend: Mr. Lamin Prince Sanyang

On January 27, 2025, Mr. Lamin Prince Sanyang retired, marking the end of an extraordinary career in education. Since beginning his teaching journey in the 1980s, he has shaped countless lives across The Gambia, serving in schools such as Fatima in Bwiam, St. George’s in Basse, Rex in Faji K***a, Serekunda LBS, and Faraba Banta BCS, among many others.

As Vice Principal of Faraba Banta BCS, Mr. Sanyang was a pillar of the school’s transformation. His leadership, mentorship, and dedication to excellence played a vital role in shaping both students and teachers, leaving an indelible mark on the institution. His passion for education and commitment to nurturing young minds will never be forgotten.

As he steps into retirement, we express our deepest gratitude for his service and wish him joy, good health, and fulfillment in this new chapter.

Thank you, Mr. Sanyang! Your legacy will live on.

Farewell Message for Handover of page Communication

Dear Faraba Banta Basic Cycle School Community,

I hope this message finds you well. It is with mixed emotions that I write this note to inform you all that I, Mr. Sowe, will be focusing on my studies and will be stepping away from my responsibilities with the school's page for the time being. Along with Mr. Ngallan, who has also left, we have had the privilege of keeping you updated on the academic activities and achievements of our wonderful students.
As we transition, I am happy to announce that the management and communication of the page will now be handed over to other dedicated teachers who will continue to keep you informed and engaged with the school's activities.
I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to all of you for your support and involvement during our time of managing the page. It has been a rewarding experience, and I trust the new team will continue to strengthen the bond between the school and the community.
Wishing you all the best as we move forward, and I look forward to seeing the continued success of the Faraba Banta Basic Cycle School.
Warm regards,
Mr. Sowe

Tribute to Omar Fadara: A Year of Remembrance

Today marks the first anniversary of the passing of our dear colleague, Omar Fadara a man whose humility, piety, and unwavering discipline left an indelible mark on all who knew him. While his presence may no longer be with us physically, his legacy continues to inspire and guide us.

Omar was not just a colleague but a beacon of integrity and kindness. His dedication to his work was matched only by his deep sense of compassion and care for others. He approached every task with a quiet determination, always striving for excellence, yet never seeking the spotlight. His commitment to serving others, both in and outside of the workplace, reflected his profound belief in doing good without expecting recognition.

A person of great faith, Omar’s piety was a cornerstone of his life. He lived by principles that transcended the ordinary, always seeking to better himself and to help those around him. His spiritual devotion provided a sense of calm and reassurance to all who were fortunate enough to engage with him. In times of challenge, his words offered solace, and his actions were a testament to his faith.

Discipline was another of Omar’s defining character . His approach to life was methodical, yet compassionate always finding a balance between doing what was right and showing understanding. He taught us the value of consistency, of staying true to one’s values, and of always giving our best, regardless of the circumstances.
My last conversation with him was " Go for it, you can do it bro" those were his final words of encouragement he gave me.

Today, as we remember Omar Fadara, we honor his quiet strength and the positive impact he had on all of us. His spirit lives on in the work we do, the kindness we share, and the discipline we uphold. While he may no longer be with us, his example remains a guiding light one that we carry with us in our hearts, now and always.

Rest in peace, Omar. You are missed, but your legacy e

THE HANDING OVER OF THE FARABA BANTA BASIC CYCLE SCHOOL MASJID

The Faraba Banta Basic Cycle School Masjid will today be handed over to the school authority . The Majid was started by the teacher’s contributions as well as well-wishers . The Sharing Wonders SADAQAH TUL JARIYAH under the tutelage of MAMA GAMBIA picks up the project and have finally completed the building of the Masjid, Toilets and Ablution performing areas .

This is a big development considering the challenges both staff and students face during their praying times . It will ease the difficulties that both students and staff face and reduce reduce the loitering of students during this period.

We vehemently thank MAMA Gambia and her charitable organization for their highly needed support.

The handing over will be done by 11:00 am and everyone is highly invited to witness the handing over.

Celebration echoed through our school today as we proudly received approval from WAEC to enroll students in Technical Drawing for the upcoming GABECE—an inaugural moment in our school's history. This noteworthy addition follows the recent successful registration of subjects like Home Economics and Literature in English.

Eager to enhance our technical department further, we're aspiring to register for yet another technical subject: Metalwork. However, our progress hinges on obtaining approval from WAEC, contingent upon having the necessary materials in place. Attached is the inspection form from WAEC, detailing the essential facilities and materials required.

We invite you to join hands with us in this endeavor for the betterment of our students. Your generous donations are crucial, and simply sharing this post would make a significant impact. Together, let's ensure these deserving students are approved for this vital subject. Thank you for your support.

It is with great pleasure that we express our gratitude to all the members of this platform dedicated to discussing matters concerning Faraba Banta Basic Cycle School. We sincerely thank each one of you for following and providing encouraging comments on school-related issues.

Our top priority is to make the school the best in the country, and we are tirelessly working towards achieving that goal. Year after year, we consistently send a significant number of students to the best senior schools in the country, showcasing our commitment to excellence. As one of the oldest schools in the district, we believe the school deserves recognition and further development.

While the MRC Holland Foundation has undertaken renovations in the Lower sector, there are additional areas that require attention. Specifically, the structures in the Upper sectors urgently need painting, as the walls are dilapidated. Many ex-students and villagers can attest to this. Repainting the school would not only enhance its aesthetics but also create a conducive environment for teaching and learning.

Furthermore, the school's population is rapidly increasing, with four classes from One to Six at the moment. Anticipating four Grade Seven classes instead of the usual three classes in the next academic year. We express concerns about the insufficient furniture. While some have been repaired, we would be grateful for any stakeholders willing to provide furniture from now on against the upcoming academic year.

Also, the need for a perimeter fence remains a great concern. Not only lessons are interrupted by a lack of fence but also a great deal of insecurity. We have challenges maintaining a school garden or even planting ornamental plants on the premises due to the uncontrolled intrusion of domestic animals.
The provision of a perimeter fence would patch an ugly wound suffered by the school.

In addition, the construction of the school's mosque remains incomplete. Its completion would enable both students and teachers to perform their daily prayers conveniently while at school. Although there has been some elevation through donations from teachers and well-wishers, the project needs further support.

We understand that addressing all these issues may take time, but we find it essential to communicate through this platform to keep everyone informed. We actively engage with the community through this page and during Parents-Teachers Association meetings.

We warmly welcome any assistance, as developing the school is synonymous with developing the community and the nation at large. We extend our gratitude to all for your comments and encourage open-armed assistance. As the schools are closed, we look forward to welcoming all our students on January 8th, 2024.

For contributions or questions, please contact the school's administration at: +220 732 1947.

Thank you for your continued support.

At your service, we remain.

Best regards! Happy New Year in advance!

Where are the Literature students? Who among you remembers the famous African writer Chinua Achibi's book titled 'Things Fall Apart'. The book emphasized about the stages it took the African man to drop his cultures and traditions to later adopt the lifestyle of the white man and the rule of the white man's growth. A man named Okonkwo was the main character in this book, he was a great wrestler. He got his fame by defeating a wrestler never defeated by the name Ezinma the cat in a wrestling match, Ezinma was nicknamed the cat because his back never touched the ground in a wrestling match.
