Excursion to Shai Hills Resource Reserved...

Last Friday was full of excitement as we had an excursion to Shai Hills
Resource Reserved - just outside Accra. Our trip was adventurous as the children not only saw animals, such as, antelopes, baboons, green monkeys, ostrich, zebras, and bats but also had to climb (using ropes because of the smooth rock surfaces) the Mogo and Sayo hills. Our knowledgeable guide gave us a history lesson of the area.


To get to the top, you need to climb holding a rope since the rocks are smooth.
