Others are sanitary items, including liquid soap, towels, tissue, plastic hand basins and a waste bin which are to help improve hygiene and sanitation in the school.
The President of the club, Mr Bright Semanu Attah, who handed over the items, said they were a token from the club to the school to help improve on its environmental sanitation.

He said basic education and literacy was one of the focus areas of the club where it provided support towards improving the lives of the under-privileged.
Mr Attah named the other areas where the club focused as peace and conflict resolution, disease prevention and treatment, water and sanitation, maternal and child health and economic and community development.
Accordingly, he said, the Rotary Club of Accra East had, over the past 29 years, undertaken projects in various communities and made interventions to enhance education, water and sanitation, maternal and child health.
