No 9 especially, we call it sakpa then. Happens mostly during exam period. During that time students hide by corners of the dinning hall, once it's 6 o'clock, they enter and massacre the food.

I remember putting sponge, pant or even sanitary pad in water...yet it would still be tapped. Hidding kegs of water inside ghana must go bag or travelling bag, hiding contraband in the ceiling, i remember the dining hall mongers who would usually go in through the window to massacre food. Saturday inspections....jumping out through the back window during break so that seniors wont send you on errands(walahi, by the time you deliver one parcel..like 5 more seniors would be queueing in line for you. you go do omodo sotay break go end). I remember friday nights nlaru, vals day(oyibo thing)...choko, runser, under g...3737, indefinite suspension and deboarding(the school had no authourity to expel any student). I remember the miserable tasteless tea that would always burn my tongue...bread with muccur...some people had guardians in kitchen cos of extra food....just too numerous to mention...i rep FGGC Ibusa.

Lol..i can relate..My child can never attend a boarding school.My experience was hell,always falling sick...I recieved the first slap in my life in Js2,FGC warri.For 2 mins it was as if there was blackout.I told my mum abt it when she visited, she sent someone to call d senior,one yeye ss2 girl.As she greeted my mum,na 2 slaps in quick succession on her both cheeks my mama take respond..I was happy,yet scared of what would happen to me..I was like, this woman don sign my death warrant ooo.Abi na my provisions?Most times i would get to the hostel and find my locker jacked.The person would help herself to my sardine,biscuits and other things she wants.I was always crying then.Finally,my mum just drove down one day and took me home to become a day student,before i die there of depression.
I didn't know female schools where like this too. I went to a navy school though, so I could relate to this. Though I just had to ride along till I was through. All those ajepako kids & bursting of lockers back then. smiley

that tea...initially it was lipton(white hot water) later on they started giving us chocolate(brown hot water)...the tea always had this firewood taste and smell. I usually augumented mine with my provisions. The school made me hate bread and tea...till date.

for me i suffered alot in my first year cos it was so difficult to adapt cos i was one of the 5 students who came from Lag to Ekiti state in a small village but after the first year i became more reserved as in to the extent i slapped my so called school mother for stealing my 900g milo just because i don't take chocolate and i disowned her and insulted the seniour who tried to punish me and even rejected the punishment. and i burnt the mattress of my classmate who bullied me, i snuk out of school for fresh air when i was frustrated and any teacher or principal who punishes me recieved a call from my granny, lol. But i hardly eat at the Dining hall cos i really select food, i only ate rice, yam and akara which is Mondays, Wednsdays, and Sundays. the annoying part was we were though Chemisty and Biology in Yoruba and as a yoruba girl i could hardly understand yoruba but i learnt cos i was insulted in Yoruba in my first year. i could not cut grass during labour day so i just fetched 3 buckets of water to the dining hall or pound yam for the house mistress. all i was, was an uncontrollable girl in that prison grin

Lol you forgot to add these:

Scaling the fence and going home/going to the market to get more provisions/watch football match

Selling/cooking indomie, rice, spag, yam lol ( cryI miss them days Meehn)

When you call uncle or Aunty or parents to send airtime so you could sell it and use the money. So now you're walking around the hostels in search of a buyergrin

Feigning sickness when it's time for labour lol

Hiding under the bunk during labour

"Taxing" junior students on resumption day or visiting day.

Making your school sons get you something to eat angry

General lashing:the day of reckoning, I always dreaded this day as a junior student. After the lashing Na your body go tell una cry

Which school did you attend because what you wrote is what happens in my school then.

5 : The fearless ones.
They were some student who never mind the school authority and would sneak out at any opportunity through the fence to go to parties and some just to go to buy bread and akara and enjoy fresh air. We knew some of this students but you never dare telling on them...the fear of them making life a miserable hell for you later would scare you to your bones.
Also some that never called anybody senior again right from Ss1 and o one can question them. This set of student were so stubborn that the school was tired of suspending them at a point.

6 : Social/variety Nights/Excursion and Visiting Days.
At the mention of social nights or an excursion all student would explode into celebration like we were going on vacation. This were best moments for me back then when we would dance till we were exhausted and do all sort of things(those who went to mixed school understand better) lol. Leaving the school for an excursion was like escape from prison. Infact then we called my school prison. And on visiting day for your patents not to come for you was like being left alone in a big wide world to suffer. One would cry uncontrollably even seniors. You would be like at least they would have sent some one.

7 : Inspection Day ;
This always happen on Saturdays,we would wake up very early than usual to start thorough clean up of the whole hostels and school compound up to the school gate. And then appear in white uniforms in front of your bunks to be inspected. The neatest house woukd be announced and presented a gift(sweet and biscuit) while the house withe the last position would be punished severely so it was a day we put in our best shots to work for recommendation.

8 : Hunger strike ;
This was always funny and still funny to me anytime I remember the crazy things we did during those moments. A week before visiting day or a week to go home was always terrible with all lockers empty and free of provisions. Long faces everywhere with over prompt attitude to dinning. Dinning was usually filled up before time and you coming at exact time cannot guarantee your food.
