Mfantsipim School has celebrated its 150th anniversary with an Awards and Fundraising Dinner held on Saturday, October 31, 2026, bringing together distinguished alumni, invited guests, institutional partners, corporate leaders and members of the school community.

The event honoured individuals whose achievements and contributions reflect the values and traditions of the historic institution, while raising funds to support its future development.

Among the award recipients was Alex Apau Dadey, Executive Chairman of KGL Group, who received two honours: the Partner of Impact Award and a special category award in recognition of his contributions to the school.

His support for the school’s initiatives was recognised as an example of the leadership and service the awards seek to celebrate.

The live auction featured a selection of artworks, an exclusive release of 10 custom anniversary Caveman watches and a Collector’s Edition 150th Anniversary Anthology. Proceeds were intended to support the school’s legacy and infrastructure projects.
